Beauty in its mystery
unbelievably united but out of sync
they whisper the truth and roar the lies
I wish to merely lose myself in the tides
My tears, they're washed away
I swallow my pride and I am encouraged to stay
Can I be swept by the waves
So purely take my life in this daze
My shallow eyes cannot mend
Laying helpless on the bend
In the path I'm on
I used to be so strong
This hurt and pain
I give it to my father not in vain.
I pray to be rescued and nourished
By his love and power, I'm relinquished.
Despite the fight
I'm back into his light
The ocean questions my faith and points out my fears
I do not turn back for my God is here.
This conceit just flowed out of me, I wasn't sure how much it ment to me until I was done writing it. My battle with the ocean (world) and how it feels like it'll just take over me leaves me with such disparity. I keep trying to fight it alone rather than giving it to God and completely let him control my life. It's so hard to conquer but once I just give everything to the lord everything else seems so insignificant. My God continues to save me and hold me through my struggles, it's incredible.
