The crazy thing about words is how powerful they are. I'm not really sure why I'm surprised, or stunned, yet again, because it's not like it's something new. But this morning I though I'd share some old November poetry with you, and a song that I can't listen to without some tears falling. Sometimes when I go back and read stuff from the past I'm surprised at the beauty. Last year I wrote a prayer everyday, and when I've looked back, it's no wonder I had a little breakdown, this girl prayed some fierce things. I prayed myself right into this very spot. Words are powerful people, and even more powerful when they're prayer words. Don't ask me how it works, I just know I feel their tremors.
So heres a little treat from November:
You're inviting me to wonder here,
And I didn't see it coming.
I trenched myself in,
and you opened the back-door.
I run and you find me.
I hide and you seek me out.
You're reckless, absurdly reckless.
Unchart and undo me, oh loveliest one.
How about a second one, I missed yesterday:
End to endless
Light to lightness
Irreverently Holy
Paradox city.
Uncharted you lead me
Unopened you reach me
helplessly hurting
hauntingly hungry.
Falling you find me
Fainting you reach me
Inward you invite me: to the caverns of my soul.
