A Poem: You Are Greatness

1/8/2005

You are Greatness and I am emptiness You are Alive and I am lifeless You are Truth and I am lies You are Hope and I am hopeless

I fall and Your arms open wide I’m blind and You focus my eyes I need, and You give me Yourself I ask and You answer my cry

You breathe and my life begins You speak and my world make sense You laugh and my heart overflows You touch and my eyes see again

I need you like a wave needs the ocean I need you like a star needs light I need you like a child needs a Father I need you like eyes need sight

Your Strength is perfected in weakness Your Sight is perfected in eyes that can’t see Your Life is perfected in death You are perfected in me
