…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
