I Am Free


As I take a breath

The sea grows calmer

And as I trap my worries and pain

The sun shines again

Though the days are hell

And the struggle to push through

The sea will be calm once again

Take one step at a time

As my sorrows drift away slowly

The heart yearns to be loved

not just by people

but through understanding

and through God

to be loved by God 

we know nothing can stand in our way

only our fear and doubt in our mind will stop us
