prostrate.


"oh no, my walls are going to break.
so close, it's more than I can take.
so tired of turning and running away
when love just isn't safe."
-britt nicole
prostration
is the only position of power I desire, Father.
infuse my blood with
love which is foreign to my own strength.
love which follows in faith.
love which begins with loving myself but, at the same time,
is self-less.
love which knows no manipulation.
love which is neither comfortable nor safe.
love which is always prostrate,
knowing this life,
this woman,
this career,
these people,
were never mine to begin with.
All is gift. How easily I forget...
