Like You

Here I lay, in the open arms of never ending waters.

Washing over me with gentle waves, and wiping the tears that soak my face.

God, how did I wander this far from you?

The shore is nowhere to be found.

Yet, you hold me on solid ground.

It is truly profound, the love that shows no mercy;

Unwavering and persistent; I am like you in this way.

Persistent in loving the people who need it most, almost costing the life you gave to me.

Though, it lead me astray from you,

I forgot I cannot save souls as you do.
