Life

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.
