Never Be The Same

I see what he does
I have seen what he has done
heard his nasty words
that make me come undone
I pray to never be the same
to journey down an unbeaten path
to be fresh and genuine
to build relationships of substance
He sits among us everyday,
yet is always absent
I think my demands might be too grand,
yet is depth and warmth too much to ask
I try to accept it,
but I hate when the mark falls short
I pray to never be the same
to journey down an unbeaten path
to be present and near
to pursue matters of depth
He crawls back to his confines
and buries his burdens deeper and deeper
making him sicker and sicker
never wanting love or embrace
to reach his broken heart
that is buried beneath
all of the rubble and rubbish
I pray to never be the same
to journey down an unbeaten path
to be love and grace
to hold your heart higher than mine
I pray to never be the same
to journey down an unbeaten path
So I won't be the same
