Complexity calls me crazy

when the news is all biased

toward the wrong

it only depends whether I want it tilted

toward the left or right side of the truth

but the simplicity

of your whispered words make me see

the world that could be

tangled in love

after we build a foundation of reality

from the truth, we have long forsaken

laughing like the scent of heaven

that tickles my senses

with the feather of wonder

if I stop trying to earn my own salvation

if I throw away the pride that keeps me from you

it will be the most painful thing I’ve ever done

but it’s all I can really do…

I have to surrender me

to have you
