Soft

Come on 
Inspiration 
Rain down on me. 
I'm desperately searching 
for the words 
that my heart would say 
if it could talk. 
Beautiful 
extraordinary, 
and supernatural 
are the words 
that come to mind now. 
Beautiful is the sunset and the sea, 
while we walk and talk 
about our little plans. 
Extraordinary is the light that shines 
within and above me, 
is the light that shines 
in your forest-filled eyes. 
Supernatural are the prayers 
that He answered. 
If I were to give anyone solid advice, 
it would be to never, 
ever stop praying. 
Long-suffering prayers 
will soon be rewarded.
I have faith today.
It's been lifting weights 
and doing push-ups, 
so it's strong and firm. 
The Lord has my back, 
He loves me and believes in me. 
I don't care 
what others think or say. 
Nothing is more important than home. 
I don't have time 
to fancy my fears, 
to listen to ugliness, 
to walk around in pride. 
The Lord wants 
me to be quiet, 
to be tender, 
and make my home warm. 
He wants 
me to be sweet and delicate. 
I've spent most of my life 
trying to be a woman 
that I was not. 
I was tough 
hard, cruel, and vicious. 
I was a cold person 
hated myself 
and others around me. 
That was never 
who I was supposed to be 
I let the world 
harden my soul. 
Now I'm soft again. 
Soft but not defenseless.
