"Perhaps it would be better not to be a writer, but if you must, then write. If it all feels hopeless, if that famous 'inspiration' will not come, write. If you are a genius, you'll make your own rules, but if not - and the odds are against it - go to your desk, no matter what your mood, face the icy challenge of the paper - write." ~ J.B. Priestly

Enough (-75 Days-)

I am falling in love
with a place that is not my own
still, I call it home
because when I look upon the
photos taken for those who cannot see
what lies beyond their world, the beauty
I leave this place and close
my eyes to drift away to where
pictures try so hard to take me there
it isn’t enough...
oh, please give me an open door
and lead me unafraid to where I’ve never been before
gladly will I stoop
to meet those who cannot stand
reach to give them my hand
to wordlessly acclaim all
you are, and have been to me
may it be Jesus they see
make me gentle
because in a land of ancient strength
there are still broken lives, consuming pain
I know I can’t take away
but maybe when you let me touch
their trembling hands
maybe that will be enough...
