Draining the Ocean
I’ve suppressed so much inside of me, positive and negative.
The accumulation has grown to the size of an ocean.
However large I protect it discreetly, with great precision and intensity.
This creates a dilemma, now that I feel God leading
me into a place of greater expression, a place
that will lead to the draining of my coveted ocean.
In this place the days of the small, sprinkle-sized expressions
come to an end
I’m scared of this place.
If my ocean is drained you will see who
I really am - that is my biggest fear.
My mind hates this, but my Spirit knows I
need this
It’s all so crazy, but if God is truly behind this I know He
is not the author of confusion.
With that said, I guess it’ll all just have to make
more sense as my coveted ocean drains….
