Relentless

I hide myself in darkness but you still see all of me
my heart and mind are foggy but you still speak so clearly
I run, resist, lash out, and fight, but you chase me endlessly
because your love won’t rest until your arms envelope all of me.

Your beauty bold and blinding proves to shake me to the bone
I have lived a life so frightened built a fortress around my soul
But your light of truth and goodness cracks the stone of willing hearts
so the choice is mine to offer back my pieces and my parts.

You promise to the weary that you will shoulder up their load
And my heart and mind are heavy oh too much for me to hold
So I give you all I give you reign do whatever you must do
I will trade my weight in fear and lies for your weightless gift of truth
