His Exceptions –
laura vanbukirk
I’m ready to move
on Dear Lord, to follow the path I’ve avoided for so long
Wincing at the
consequences of choices and people I had wronged
But deep down my
heart always turned to you, in the darkest depths of my despair
Though I knew I
lacked perfection, I was torn feeling that you were unfair
And I didn’t want
to care, no I tried to not care.
The eyes see things
the mind distorts, and I’m blinded by a burning wall
With every joint
aching inside, I was fearful of giving you my all
I had to throw away
who I once was, immersing into the waters of redemption
For a new life of
love and hope, ridding my heart of pride and contention
Realizing I was an
exception, we are all an exception.
