I Belong To You

I was blinded by you, O empty life Your sweet destruction filled me At some point, I became my master of it all I engulfed myself in your sugary poison Many illusions knocked spontaneously I knew one thing “Life was only about me” Peace, Happiness was for me to run after Success and friends were mine to gather After a long laugh, that seemed to never end Brokenness, Emptiness popped in Friends disappeared, as if the earth had swallowed thee Possessions flied away into a wild eagle Everything deserted, falling out of place When every aspect of life seemed lost All that was needed to open my eyes A touch that lifted my soul again A feeling of fullest built Not that all the scattered pieces gathered But a realization,” I don’t belong to myself” I belong to thee, El Olam As I lay myself down, heaven hear me now Break all the boxes that I’ve tried to hide you I’m always thirsty, I can be quenched Only you can fill my life Walking with You in every path I take Is all I ever needed in life Direct me, cause I belong to you
