Your Thotful Compassion

Enlarged burdens held me down
Like bricks, stones and boulders down below, rising above my feet
I barged in on your progress and I’m about to drown
As if I became empty after becoming whole again…hear my heart beat

Hear my saddened heart beating with yours
You, alone, had made me feel change is the only option
You have stitched my bleeding wounds and sores
You, alone, is thoughtful with so much compassion

Your thoughtful compassion 
Is giving me courageous passion
Is giving me a reason to live on
Is giving me a season before dawn
Is giving me a trillion thousand reason
Why I’m alive and surviving — hope has just begun
To unfold and embolden me with strength
You no longer give me unbearable angst
Your thoughtful compassion
Starts with action and satisfaction and a beautiful direction and affection 

Anchored down into the sea of my miseries and anxieties
But, I’ll rise above it all, above the surface and above heaven’s height
The Phoenix in my heart burns on
You won’t hold me down any longer, hon

Hear my saddened heart beating with yours
You, alone, had made me feel change is the only option
You have stitched my bleeding wounds and sores
You, alone, is thoughtful with so much compassion

Your thoughtful compassion 
Is giving me courageous passion
Is giving me a reason to live on
Is giving me a season before dawn
Is giving me a trillion thousand reason
Why I’m alive and surviving — hope has just begun
To unfold and embolden me with strength
You no longer give me unbearable angst
Your thoughtful compassion
Starts with action and satisfaction and a beautiful direction and affection 

Your thoughtful compassion
Makes me feel so much satisfaction
I’m appreciating all the interaction
With my affectionate blissfulness in action 
Your thoughtful compassion
Gave me true, divine direction
I’m loving, never hating your happiness, though it’s a distraction 
You gave me joyful admiration

Hear my saddened heart beating with yours
You, alone, had made me feel change is the only option
You have stitched my bleeding wounds and sores
You, alone, is thoughtful with so much compassion

Your thoughtful compassion 
Is giving me courageous passion
Is giving me a reason to live on
Is giving me a season before dawn
Is giving me a trillion thousand reason
Why I’m alive and surviving — hope has just begun
To unfold and embolden me with strength
You no longer give me unbearable angst
Your thoughtful compassion
Starts with action and satisfaction and a beautiful direction and affection 

Hear my saddened heart beating with yours
You, alone, had made me feel change is the only option
Your thoughtful, beautiful compassion pours
Upon my spirits of radiant, roving rejuvenation
