Here's a poem I am working on...

If you get bored, let me know what you think! It's in progress.


wild.


i used to be wild,
and wild i ran,
folding only to sun’s burn
& moon charms
where i’d abandon arms
& lie
(lay lie)
to the heart
i promised not to promise
hands i swore would never owe
feet, i was convinced could outrun the world,

until now—

as facing You in every thing
is the oath i’d break
the trove i’d forsake:
this life i turn within Your womb
seeded by Son’s enchanted love
until i drop
in two hands
forming me by the extravagance of being known,
& releasing me untamed

to the wild.
