We seek assurances
When there are none
Some people tell me I’m easy to love
Some say I’ll never learn
Others are sure I will forever burn
Why is it so hard for me to love myself?
I hear a song of forgiveness and grace when I close my eyes and listen
An invitation to dance beyond self consciousness
To fall back into a deep roiling ocean of thick luscious blue love
Red crackles of light dance and pop over the surface of the whirling curling waves
You can smell sulfur in the air and you can also hear cries of murder and fear as the lightening cracks
Is there a redemption song
Can there be an end to fear?
Is freedom real
Why do we appear
To know what can be known?
To just exist
Or are we just lost in an ocean of nothing
Never to appear again
We must write our own redemption song
Or we will sink into nothingness
And we must sing this song every day and every way we can
