I have a friend who is, let's just say, on a journey. A beautiful journey (I am sure he would disagree with me) I think it's beautiful. I think he is going to be given a gift at the end of this journey that most of us will never fully comprehend. I had to share something he wrote. He is very talented and I hope you enjoy:
This is Chapter 1. This is where I'm at.
Prodigal...I'm sure that's what you call me
And you are telling the truth
Lost my soul...when this world bought me
Leaving me cheapened and fooled
Where do you run to
When there's no one waiting?
Who do you cry to
When no one's listening?
I wish I hadn't found this out the hard way
'Cause it's gonna take awhile before I'm even ready
Yeah, it's gonna be awhile before I take that first step
I guess I just need to know You're still looking for me
That You still miss me and You're willing to wait for me
Hollowed out...and feeling so unstable
From reaping all I've sown
Swallowed whole...and knowing I'm unable
To be the same I was before
There's nowhere to hide when you're so transparent
There's nowhere to go unless you come home again
I wish I hadn't run in the first place
It's gonna take awhile but I'm almost ready
Yeah, it's gonna be awhile before I take that first step
I guess I just need to know You're still looking for me
That You still miss me and You're willing to wait for me
I've tried it all and failed miserably
And I've seen too much to ever forget
I've acted out on all my wildest fantasies
But what am I left with?
It's gonna take awhile but I'm packed and ready
Yeah, it's gonna be awhile but I'm tying up my shoes
I guess I just need to know You're still looking for me
That you still miss me and You're willing to wait for me
