Learn, Follow Through

Faded x's and o's are all we have
To leave behind this trail of finding home
Now that they're gone, I have nowhere to go
And it's only an uphill struggle from here

I'm falling hard on these shaking knees
In surrender to the life that isn't mine
I'm not like the way you are
I'm here for who I am

Please don't let this melting snow fall
Just go, maybe leave me alone
While I have the time in my hands
I want to strive for something more, prayer loving

As I learn from slower colder hands
These eyes become more sleepy
But there's work to do here, now
I will be incumbent on my bed soon enough
