Chasing Strangers
When I met you, I lost my mind.
Your soul lit a fire in me
that I couldn’t quench
And once it was ignited, it set my
passions ablaze, solely focused on you.
I wanted you more than anything,
and being a clumsy fool, I scared you away.
Thinking that by chasing you I could have you,
not realizing that it made you run harder…
A game of predator and prey…
My passions flared hotter, my anger stirred,
and I pushed harder, trying to catch up.
But you still ran harder!
I’m tired, but this journey has taught me a lot.
I know myself more; I know who I am.
I know I am strong. I know I am worthy
and worthwhile, though you may not see it.
I am not chasing now. I should not have to.
If you want to know me, come and find me!
I still want to know you, I’m just not chasing.

Love Prayer

I pray, oh Lord, to be rid of my darkened heart.Cast out the shadows, force the demons “depart!”
I want real love to burn bright within.
Not the kind that resulted from sin.
The kind that built the world and everyone in it.
The kind that spent six days to make the it perfect.
I want that flawless love, that takes care of everyone.
The kind that doesn’t stop until the work is done.
Please teach me love, so I can do your will.
Though not me, Lord, your love fulfill.
