Life
so unexpectedly you lead me forward on this path
pulling me to things dear, and then
ripping me into places of fear.
Shadows on the horizons, light on my face
Let me lay down my head a bit
can you let me have a rest?
Life
leave your heartaches outside my door
bring them not into my home
come instead to feast and toast
Let the light bring forth love and joy
slice through the pain, and heal
set my course towards peace.
