I don’t know what to say. 

How is it, that I never know what to say? 

Even if you were standing in front of me

In all your glory, right now-

I’m still not sure that I could muster up the words. 

And words… They hardly ever seem to be enough. 

They’re full of lies and failure, broken promises, dreams unfulfilled…

Words… Aren’t, everything. 

And even if I were to open my mouth and speak- DARE I ask a question. 

Would you just repeat me? Or stare back at me?

I hear not every word spoken, needs a response. 

Or, would you look at me with those eyes-

Full of kindness, full of ending, unchanging love…

Imagine that, being enough. 

Imagine your eyes solving everything. 

Sweeping each act, each fear, each gap of integrity that has its hold on me… Away. 

Imagine how empty for a moment, just a moment, it would be- Without those unholy ideologies plaguing me. 

Imagine the waterfall of grace, just as soon, that would crash over me. 

Love, devotion and truth. 

This new identity, washing over me. 

And all because of you–

You didn’t make a sound. 

Not a single answer, not one loving line. 

All it took was one look in your eyes-

And I’m free. 

Free to speak, free to sing, free to love with all that’s inside of me. 

You didn’t make a sound. 

But suddenly, I’m no longer asking, when can I go meet my God?

Because you’re already right here, with me.
