Deflated Dreams

Folder: 
God (Inspired by)

I cling to my dreams

like a deflated balloon.

 

Expectations weigh heavy,

but disappointments

shrink me down.

 

My heart has been

emptied of hope.

 

My ego has caved in;

my pride is wounded.

 

Lord, break apart my desires

and give me yours.

 

Please fill up my heart

with your love,

until I am overflowing.

 

I want to feel your grace

so that without you,

nothing else will suffice.

 

Take away my selfishness;

remove all that I have

so I only need you.
