I was inspired this morning to write this piece... not sure yet if I want it to be a song or just a poem but it is how I feel right now... like I am teetering on a tight rope... this is a feeling I do not do too well with... the feeling of uncertainty... so I hope you enjoy... writing is sort of like healing for me... or a better word might be "therapy"... so I present "Tight Rope"
TIGHT ROPE
It’s hard not to look down below
When you’re flying up this high
It’s so hard not to lose control
When you see what I see tonight
See I’m trying to keep my focus
Trying not to sink below the ocean
but this fear is trying to cripple me
So I come to you humbly asking you please
can you show me something
show me a sign give me an answer
Lord as I walk this tight rope
give me your hand don’t let me fall lord
I’m trying to keep my focus
Can you show me something
Sometimes we try to figure you out lord
But were only human you knew we would do this
Even though they laugh in the crowd lord
I keep my devotion, I can’t lose focus
When I tried to move the mountain on my own
It left me frustrated with nothing to show
So now I put my faith back in what I know
Give me your hand I can’t do this alone
Before fear cripples me on this tight rope
Please can you show me…
Can you show me something
Show me a sign give me an answer
Lord as I walk this tight rope
Give me your hand don’t let me fall lord
I’m trying to keep my focus
Can you show me something
