To Block And Let Go

Have you not wondered why we close the door,
Why silence wraps the ones we used to crave?
Not out of spite, or pride, or keeping score
But just to stop the heart from being brave.

For if I see your name, I start to reach,
My fingers trace the hope I try to hide.
An anxious heart, no logic it can teach,
It runs toward fire, even as it’s fried.

The photos, texts, each one a quiet plea,
A ghost that holds me fast in aching place.
So blocking you sets wounded spirit free,
Not hate, but love that knows it must give space.

I do not block because I wish you pain,
I block because I won’t survive the strain.

Don't Let Me Drift Away

I grew up hearing tales of who You are
So kind, so just, so full of love and grace.
You watched me closely like a guiding star,
Your whispers now still echo in this place.

I speak to You, and tears begin to fall,
For in the quiet, I can feel You near.
My Friend, my Shield, my Strength through every call,
You lift my soul and cast away my fear.

Without You, Lord, my world would drift apart,
My dreams and goals would lose their light and worth.
Yet still, You knew the secrets of my heart,
And cleansed my sins before my time on earth.

Please help me never drift, never pull away, never trade
Your presence for silence. Because in You, I find everything, I will ever need.
