Lust


She mistakens his infatuation for unconditional love A camouflaged smile with deception in his hug He pulls her in saying just the right words She falls shes sinking naive her vision is blurred No vision in the dark he's artificial light shes reaching Shes calling there's no one in sight Blinders in place he leads her astray He begins to beat and break a new shape is taking place She's no longer who she was created to be he breaks her spirit her trust and confidence begins to flee One day she wakes up and takes a look in the mirror she calls out to God and begged for life to be clearer Beaten and broken she runs to her Savior afraid of his wrath yet surprisingly he didn't blame her He picked her up wiping her eyes this man they call Yeshua healed her broken demise Now she walks with him on water unafraid to stand tall She knows her self worth and he will never let her fall
