Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis

Thank you for not letting me settle for iniquity

You see my past made me believe that I represented iniquity

My present filled with frailty

Impersonating fear and emptiness I gave away to mediocrity

Swayed by false humility

Decisions made on meager scrutiny

I barely survived on spiritual and emotional poverty

Ridicule sanity

The darkness is maybe not too bad a place, I saw change as the ultimate adversary 

But no, you had to see the real me and remind me that I am a lioness meant to roar

An eagle to soar

My fears told me, nah you can't make it, your legs are way too short for the distance

Have I forgotten your omnipotence?

I am too small for the greatness of these heights

Am I  too numbed by pain to see your importance?

Holding onto pain, I told you I am not fit for this God

I am not ready for the outpouring of your embrace

I am barely getting out of bed, I can't even face my own face

Love so relentless

You refused to feed my anxieties, because you never intended for me to abide in inferiority

You led me to dig unto me the treasure of the your divinity

You didn't give up on me or forsake me

Even when I gave up on me

You said give it all up to me, the ugly and the beautiful, just be true to me

Waiting on me to pick the right reaction and make the sound decision

You waited patiently, because real love is allowing me to have a free will

Holding me still

Even if it opposes my nature, your relentless and never ending endurance, you remain rooted in your truth for me 

Still I remained lost, hurting but shoving all those feelings into oblivion

Well because maybe my brain was to small for all that terrible dominion

Logic and reason is supreme, isn't it, my head works where my heart always gave up anyway

Little did I even know what a heart was or less of what it is to be used for, so faithless

You found me in a pit and you lightened me up, set me free to be on my way

Your light, so bright, so strong, my darkness got lit

Yes you done did it

Layer by layer, got rid of it

Just because I lived life, walked a crooked path and got beaten by imperfection

You did not love me any less

Instead you saw me as blameless

So forward I will press

Forward child, forward you go to your greatness

But all the glory is yours, you turned the empty into wholeness

May love water your soul, garden your heart, empower you to be alive and smile!
