Deep down there is

still that little boy

longing for his father

waiting for the world to make sense

and wanting to be loved by those who could never understand

He wants to love another

but cannot control the demons inside

I do not know if I should be asking

for more forgiveness or someone 

to just hold my hand

Risen King, declare your

lordship over me

Open my eyes, change my heart

Take me home

- Meditations from The Opiate Mass at First Presbyterian Church
