I don’t have much to say
I won’t push out the truth
I won’t release the reigns
I’ll pull and stay silent
There’s no need to try
One thousand
And one hundred times
With words to survive
Fewer words wasted
Protect my energy
Protect my dreams and focus
Say less do more
Intentionally unnoticed
Discretion keeps my life
And road even though
And bridled focus
Keeps my rodeo
It’s not the rain
That makes
Me to understand
Why I stand
Above clouds
And stars
Running
Beyond mars
Beyond darkness
Glimpsing light speeds
I see a star
It is mine
The goal of pursuit
Toward light
I become
Only more stars
Fill the galaxy
Of my heart
Running faster
Forever I run
Time stretches wide
It is also mine
It breaks me forward
Through stars
And my why
Becomes less for you
The world
And more for me
His alone
My God
Less like them
More like Him
Miss Understood
And so good
Cause of Him
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
