…parted
…tonight i cried-
and it rained, and it rained, and it rained-
that soon enough the tears became a long flowing river-
and it flowed, and it flowed, and it flowed-
so much that the river became the largest lake-
and I didn’t understand why the ache had to be the ache-
so they poured even more, and the lake became the mightiest sea-
and many sharks came for me, but they could not bite-
because God told the teeth of the sea they were not allowed to-
and he cradled me and told the ache to be still-
and he parted the waters to remind me who he is-
to remind me who he is-
to remind me who he is-
and every drop slid down into the earth-
as i wiped my face,
and told the moon
goodnight-
-selah
