original sin from Adam and Eve
hiding behind bushes and trees
we only let out
what we want others to know
but the rest is unsaid
our heaviest load
we're sure not to trigger
but we let out tiny breaths
so someone can hear
the pound in our chest
the heart was created
to flow in and through
but no one discovers
our fears and our truths
or we replace what was given
and fill it with time
constantly running
but no feelings in line
everything mismatched
the order destroyed
rushing to leave
what was so long void
replacing the answers
with questions to hope on
knowing the answer
was something we choked on
we take from beginning
the shame of our sin
and put up a wall
not letting others in
we take pride in showing
only our best
but in each of us is a gap
from failing the test
oh weary one, in Him you find rest
oh weary child, come and confess
for a Love is much higher above your head
with peace to bring rude silence to bed
in Him your longing if blissfully fed
come out
come out
it just takes a thread
