Surely
Surely there's a stream
where I can set
pace
A depth where my strokes
are not a big
waste
My feeble frame thus never
out of place
And my troubled ways
sleeping in a nest.
Surely there's a cave where
I can find peace
A sheltered space with none
to let a hiss
My fearful mind thus never
out of ease
And my twisted speech
never kills a kiss.
Surely there's a heart
where I can find love
A warm embrace where my
touch is enough
My doubtful mind thus never
in the rough
And my stunted hope
sheltered in a cove.
Surely you can be where my
long search
stops
The very spot where my big
shield drops
My sickly heart exposed
and very raw
For you to water, for me
true growth know.
