The Outskirts of Heaven

~13~ Love and Loss my heart flutters
when you say my name
your voice soothes my uneasy spirit
these unusual feelings
that you stir deep within me
intensifies a new kind of love
the words you speak to me
I've so longed to hear
it almost makes me afraid
to freely melt in your arms
but this barrier I built around me
you opened the hidden gate
you found the little girl that I was
drowning inside..
and you brought me up to the air
when I was down in the cage
I prayed for a way out
because I had locked myself in…
and I know that the Lord sent you
to rescue me
to hold me...
in the midst of the rain
to breathe new life
into a broken heart
and to ease this
never ending pain
He sent you to strengthen
my tired weakened body
in a world that beats me down…
you lift me up
from the quicksands of life
and carry me to the outskirts
of Heaven
