choosing differently

  • God is generous with
  • Second chances
  • I see you in him
  • In his intensity and curiosity
  • In his determination of what’s
  • Right
  • For me
  • I see how my strength
  • Intrigues him
  • And incongruously makes him want to
  • Fix me

  • He’s just as
  • Sure
  • That I need his
  • Guidance
  • He’s just as sure
  • That he
  • Sees me
  • Better than I
  • See myself
  • He’s passionate and
  • Hungry and
  • He presses me
  • Challenges me
  • Outright
  • Pushing and pulling
  • But instead of
  • Resisting
  • Correcting him
  • I’m flowing
  • I’m choosing
  • Different
  • Can I let him
  • Be
  • The way I couldn’t let you?
  • Can I let him
  • Wind himself around me
  • Without stiffening or flinching?
  • Can I let him poke around
  • Inside my heart
  • Determining for himself
  • What is true and false
  • Without fear
  • Impaling him on my slamming portcullis?
  • Is it not too late with him?
  • I used all my chances with you
  • Can I open myself to him
  • So he can walk right in
  • Like I couldn’t with you?
  • I made so many mistakes
  • This time
  • I choose to float
  • Downstream
  • I choose to
  • Risk
  • For me and for
  • Love
