The Gap Between Me and You

They say You want everything.

If I give You my life, my loves, my children, my will - is that enough? In my weakness I feel You.

I know how wonderful You are, all You have given me is undeniable.

Yet there is a part of me that wants to hold on to my selfishness. The habitual pulls me away from all that You are.

And now I have to choose between You and this life that is so empty without You.

I know only You can save me, I know you want to.

It is me that holds back in the shadows when I know all I have to do is take Your warm, giving hand.
