Abba

 
neediness of soul it's always been so
a wild child of faith left alone
your voice I heard above all else
I didn't know I was lonely
because you were there

you filled the gap when I was little
there was no void
you witness my first steps
uttering step out Brenda
it will be okay if you fall

no one else was there to observe
to give me courage
my milestones went unnoticed by humanity

my baby book was yours to keep
you were my mother, father and creator
you wanted me for yourself
I didn't take to people
you were grateful for it

in my desire to please peope
I lost a piece of myself in my teen years
I went down roads of great pain
I lost track of you when you hid your face

later, man's traditons were taught to me
I embraced them even though I remembered you differently
looking for you again I embraced humanites view of you
but something was wrong

you were missing

then one day you knocked down my walls
and again announced your presence

a powerful God
you would not accept half of me
if I told a lie
you wanted to know about it
if I lust you wanted to help me understand it
if I was angry you wanted to be the first to know

you wanted the real me unfettered
the child you alone raised
the woman you called me to be

separated for your purpose
