i belong with You

draft from my birthday last year
happy 23rd x

the hollowing ache
echoes of a silent twig break
 
leaving no room for words
as the pain engulfs
creating a tear
in time & space
 
empty darkness
embraces me for eternity
 
i don’t belong on this earth.
i left a piece of myself at God’s feet.
 
for with Him is where i belong
for here all i do is long
 
i pray for the stillness of waves
the tranquility of His Grace
 
i await
for His sun rays
to illuminate the skies so grey
 
the empty darkness
that threatens to overstay
withering my soul
into flames of clay
 
take me My creator
though i’m not ready to meet you
but i am ready to leave this ache
 
this ache
haunting me
as i lay awake
 
i don’t belong here.
please take me
though my heart quivers with fear
i know that you are near
it’s never been more clear
that You gift me with ache
for You create
 
but maybe,
just maybe
i was a mistake.
