I had hemlock for breakfast Or so it feels Many a morning, I'm mourning the tyranny of inner me Each thought a thread in a tapestry of self-blasphemy Or the normal kind for that matter See, my legacy: inadequate I'm a cavity, cancerous A factory fashioned to miscarry every good thing "It's all my fault" A crackpot hitting every pothole and pitfall On this blacktop that I call my scattered brain "Thani, hypocrite! How unchristian it is to partake in the masquerade" I seek rescue from this shrapnel in my mind See, I've always sucked at Minesweeper Who else thinks like me? With misplaced hopes, victim to their trickery Subject to the vacuum of anxiety, addiction, apathy That hellish trilogy Casualty of the maggoty blackness The pathogen so known as shame Endlessly enslaved to its refrain Wearing emptiness like a necklace smelted from the embers of abandonment I need a new song And what more eloquent lyric existed than "God so loved"? Love of a Father who sent His boy on trek divine This loyal lover's greatest garden handwoven by complex design His soil covering clay once dry, honeysuckle of heaven's guide Spread for miles by bloody struggle to beckon life For us, His prize, reconciled Made alive in Him Making way for love of Breath assigning new birthstones Clothing bride in lush silk The vine abiding in eternal tryst A kiss, a seal, a fingerprint, He fills A flame enabling us to remain in Him And in that love of One whose veins painted over our plague Nails broke our chains This bronze snake high, splayed wide O, great white wolf Fangs bite, burn, bane my curse Grace died to bear striped birthmarks of a new household A sunflower, Love's power just towered Ages of estrangement undone in one hour Proving master, He, at Calvary Handcrafted the victory of victories His wrists bridged rifts no other acts could stitch This crucifixion cataclysmic for sin And each of its children So we could be in Him Our birthright is a new hearth Childlike, we, in its warmth With joyous voices, sing "God so loves you" This sunrise gifted us daffodils Hope's petals engraved on every page A mantra for dawns bright, lullaby for anxious nights That cross and cave reiterate That He repaved our way to His chamber The taste of His presence: pleasant A nectar endlessly quenching Faith: its entrance Take a gamble I swear this love won't fail you
