I'll be awake for eighty
years
More so asleep for
twenty-one
Like a child fighting
fears
Who watched his nerves come
undone
Like the vultures ache for
air
Even bones beneath the
skin
I thirst for who you
are
To see your fearless sea
for all that is
Rediscover the
bones that I've hid
Oh God, what
have I done?
To crawl and feel
your mercy course through my
veins
Set a path for who's weak
and ashamed
Love me for who I am
and who I've been
Are there any
fearless men
Who search for
answers in the dark?
Who climb
far beyond their thoughts
With
hopes to finish what they
start
Like the vultures ache for
air
Even skin between their
teeth
I'm starved to say at the
least
Cut these wrists, tie my
hands
If I could, I'd shed my
skin
Oh God, will you love me for
who I am?
