I know relationships are the only thing we keep after we die
It’s a beautiful thing that’s permeant for all eternity
This idea has conflicted me
It has restricted me
I am drowning in this tumultuous sea
I gave you a life jacket
But I should have saved myself first
In my past relationships that’s how I felt
But now I saved you
Does this mean anything to you at all?
Or did I just hit below the belt?
I need to first work on who I am becoming
God is pleased with this realization
And God has you on a different path than me
No two paths are alike
The best is on its way running
Learning to let go of what I can’t control is an important rule
I can’t control him
I can’t control her
And I can’t control God
But I can control having the expectations of a fool
