Lost At Sea

It seems so surreal Just the other day plans were in place Together our ship was sailing off But just yesterday things changed Trust so ever fragile Ever hanging in the balance of faithfulness Ever dependent on our actions Like glass ever ready to crush With one fall ever ready to break Tricky to cushion the fall Hard to prevent the breaking Difficult to put back together once fallen Scatters every where The pieces to be picked; Carefully; not to cut the fingers A difficult task to piece together I am lost at sea Seeking direction to get back on our ship To swim ashore and escape the wreck My emotions are everywhere The compass is broken Are you strong enough for both of us? Can you carry us through the wreck? I am lost at sea Our love can be found But trust elude me Are you strong enough to rebuild it? Can you carry us through the current?
