If God Will Hear Me

If God Will Hear Me


All there is within that makes me

Pulsing, beating, leaping, breathing

Flowing forth the river takes me

Twisting, crashing, falling, weeping

Holding steady, my bones inhale

Bending, stretching, creaking, aching

My throat unfurls it's tallest sail 

Burning, speaking, cracking, breaking

The fear of night, the pain of day

Calling, hiding, running, fighting

Those we love, will fly away

Leaving, dancing, losing, dying

Oh, my love, if God will hear me

Living, hoping, loving, grieving

Keep you close, forever near me

Laughing, singing...safely dreaming.
