----------

You can only watch me fall
and know that without you
I am nothing at all, but you see me as more
than just another line on the shore, more than only
a quiet child, desperate and lonely
and you long to kneel down to earth and reach
to touch your creation and begin to teach me everything
I need to get through the pain
to turn to you and not go back
to what I used to be before that, Jesus, hold me close to you
I’m falling to uncertain truths.
