I stirred from my bed in
inspiring fear...

Have you ever spent the night
praying and thinking of him...

I only have to take another breath
to realize that you are closer than before...

It's 5 AM and as I look out my window
before drifting to sleep...

Dear Father, I'm imagining myself anywhere but...
enveloping visions into my life that I will...

I really wish you were here.
I wish we could sit by the...

The way the light seeks your eyes-
it makes me want to say nothing...

I'm not sure what to think
when I appear at your kitchen door...

If you've danced in too much rain
and your feet are sinking under...

I want to be your favorite smile,
the one others usually miss and walk...

Your lies are tracks of the past
and though you ran a million different...

I swear I've glimpsed
your burnt orange skin...
