lost & found

by. rsy

searching for purpose

identifying with passions

seeking satisfaction, approval

through human interactions

desperately wanting

to somehow be

an example of happiness

better achieved

following the rules of the world

and living for me

holding onto pain caused by people

simply adhering to their and my nature

reasoning away

the blindness of faith

falling apart, swept astray

---

unbelief shattered

blessings counted

i was never alone,

You were unwavering

all goodness through mercy

all suffering from voluntary

separation, detachment

from Your grace, everlasting

perfection sought on earth

will never be retrieved

a foundation rooted in

our versions of love

is only make believe

there’s no greater joy

than realizing completely

that i’d been lost and have been found

that i’d always belonged

am home now
