I don't know if it is correlated or not
But the less I spoke to Him, the more I questioned my worth
The more I started to see myself in the mirror with a ragged cloth
The deeper the sea I was floating in got
So I knew it was time to pick of the phone, to reconnect
I didn't know what I would say or the matters we would dissect
He chose my favourite coffee place, done purposely
I see Him sitting there, looking directly towards the sea
When I approached, I felt my legs stuck in space and time
Tried to move but to an outsider, percieved like a mime
Standing there looking at Him with every emotion flowing through
Tears begin to roll uncontrollably, rollerblades on a sloping route
Anger emerged like he had been waiting to be unleashed
Telling Him about how I was left without a sword to unsheathe
About how lonely life has been in the midst of plenty
How life has left you on the daily feeling fainty
He looks up to me and Anger, saying " Just sit with me"
I am still trying to understand the hidden meaning behind these words
Is He speaking in parables again? is the translation wrong?
Then came this wave of remorse, conviction the wind it came with
And there it is, the feeling of being unworthy at its peak
I am staring at Him as He still stares at the sea sipping his tea
He says it for the second time " Just sit with me"
Not being worthy of being there in His presence overwhelmed me
The guilt of eating the fruits of the world with sin as a side dish
The promise to carry my cross , only to double cross Him
The delusion of freedom whilst bound to tendencies that harm me
Attained momentary joy from dancing in the dark with lights that flicker
Feeling disqualified from feeling His love or even love in general
Feeling I am exhausting to be friends with or to even be with
Feeling that maybe leaving earth would free people from yours truly
And at this moment, He says for the third time " Just sit with me ".
At this moment , I finally get the courage to sit
Eyes fixed at the view He had whilst I was on my feet
He looks at me with this intensity, almost like I saw myself in His eyes
I couldn't look away even if I wanted to try with all my might
Do you see how beautiful the sea is ? A ragingly calm entity
It reminds me a lot of you because you are the same
If I love the sea this much , what makes you think yours would be less?
My proudest moment was deciding to create you in my own image
You took how you think people see you and put in that same box
You made your shortcomings a goliath to my mercy, not unorthodox
You thought your ability to miss the mark was like pepper spray to my eyes
You know there is nothing that can come between the love I have for you
So instead of asking me when all the pain would go away,
Ask me how many times I would catch you when you fall
Instead of asking me to take away all the feeling of feeling lonely
Ask me how many times I would Simon of Cyrene your cross
Instead of asking me why you it seems you are always left behind
Ask me how many times I have red light your fast pace or clicked rewind
When I asked the weary to approach and recieve rest, it was for you
I am the host of the fortitude of rest and its guard too
I know there are areas in your life you need changes in
You are just going about it asking the wrong questions
We do have much to discuss, you and I
Hence why I asked you to sit with me, time to blood the nile.
