Soft Again

I want to be soft. Soft, gentle, and caring. Humble and comforting to others, kind to everyone. To help others grow and be sunlight others. To say the things that matter and protect those in need. I want to be soft, no matter what people say.

I am a gentle soul, taught to fight wars, and now I’m learning to lay my weapons down. They don’t want to hurt me, they need help. I’ll take up heart instead of arms, a shield instead of armor. I lay my sword here, and this warrior comes to rest.

I want to be soft again.

Cathedral Spires

Lost in the shadows of cathedral spires

I ask God what he desires

I feel this pain in my broken lungs

A heartbroken melody left unsung

The sanctuary is empty and evening is soon

The light of the sun is breaking in two

As the shadows part in perfect harmony

To a stained glass projection of your melody

Touching the silence, a petal to the pond

A portrait was painted, fear was gone

Grace was finally seen, fully realized that day

My heart broken in love had found peace in His name

A Dance in the Moonlight

A dance in the moonlight

A song under star of night

Come with me, my Love

And let us forget the fight

A dance in the moonlight

A kiss in the shadow of your hair

Come away with me, my Love

Let us revel in the night air
