It's marvelous
The way it hits
Untamed and relentless
But it's hard to believe
That you love me
As you crush my dreams
If I'm unsteady
It's because I'm not trusting
But even collapsing feet
To bruised knees
Shows the soldier in me
Lead my trampled feet
To mountain peaks
Even if you have to carry me
Your gazing eyes
A sweeping tide
That reaches for me
I kindly beg you
To drown me this time
Instead you tell me to breathe
When I'm unsteady
You say "cling to me"
I forgot when to eat
I didn't know what to think
When you took it all from me
How entitled I'd become
Thinking I was the one
Who always deserved what I want
My selfish dreams
Ate away at me
But you taught me humility
I'm grateful for the loss
Because I was lost
Replacing desire with need
