God,
here I stand, all of me,
emotionless at your feet.
I don't know how it happened,
the turning of my heart to stone.
The fire so brightly lit,
came out of the turbulent storm
only as a small flicker about to burn out.
God,
I just can't seem to feel.
The ups and downs of the last year,
have felt me completely dry.
God,
I don't want to be like this,
but it is so hard to care.
I long to be filled with your joy once again.
and held in your warm embrace,
but I cannot do it as I am alone.
God,
Take my heart, my body, and soul,
dismantle and repair,
renew my spirit and faith,
and help my heart to beat once again.
Bring me back to where
You want me to be.
