sailing home

where are you?
why am i still waiting?

i feel so cold
the northern winds
chilling my soul.

my anguish is
screaming from the distant shores.

i've been waiting so long
for you.

my fears deep inside
are rising again
and i have no control

i run away

when will it be time to go?
when will you come for me?

i want so badly to go
home

the pounding of the ocean
as i follow the morning star
trying to sail home
to you.

the wind is so strong
so bitter
it hurts my lungs.

i'll keep sailing
across these oceans
until i find you
on the distant shores.

will you warm my soul?
fire up
my dwindling passion?

i'm barely hanging on
as i try to sail home
to you.

here i am
late again
surprised that
You didn't mind waiting.
i pull up a chair
to find You near
as i tell you
my heart is breaking.
You're always here
to calm my fear
that i am not suffering alone.
regardless of pain
You pull me in
I was always Yours
since the beginning.
