evelation, unknowing has been taken.
why had i waited so long?
refrained for this love,
never open to the hope he has.
how could i reject this?
he was calling my name,
searching for me.
i always turned away,
not wanting to believe
i had a need for him.
feeling this emptiness.
not knowing he could fill.
drowning in my efforts to find comfort,
i searched and strived for the answer.
but every step i fell
and the earthe crumbled under me.

now i found this rock,
this stable place.
the pain has gone away.
i place my hope in no other.

my heart it cries,
it toils inside me.
wanting all to have this life.
wanting all to know this love.
but i’m reminded of my turning.
closing my eyes.
running the other way.
but i’ve decided,
i opened my eyes
to find more than i was looking for.
my mind screams,
knowing this is for all,
but not all want what i’ve found

now i found this rock,
this stable place.
the pain has gone away.
i place my hope in no other.
