yesterday, i cried again...

I was about to Say NO

Say NO and back out

Wincing at His invitation

Fear paralyzing my entirety

That was yesterday

And I cried again

Why ME. Why ME?

I prepared my speech

Worked real hard at revising

Worked real hard rehashing

Setting my best foot forward

I was ready to spit it out

In perfect stance awaiting

Moment to grasp just lurking

Then your voice came first

I am ready to wait I know its best

Ill just be here, not breaking the link

To give you more time to think

That was yesterday

And I cried again

Why ME. Why ME?

You need not wait on me

I was sinning despite the continued grace

Nefariously hurting you in flickering daze

Tongue-tied at your continuing love

Abashed of the vile I was cradling

There’s forgiveness and plea in your eyes

You’d love me anyway with all my vice

Suddenly it wasn’t only the voice, I’ve heard

Upon the sun’s blinding light, I have seen

Upon its warmth and cool breeze, I’ve felt

You held my hand and asked for my YES

That was yesterday

And I cried again

Why ME. Why ME?

I kept on asking

Why NOT YOU… WHY not YOU?

He kept on retorting

He held me close, so close

Hugged me tight and kissed the top of my head

That was yesterday

And I cried again
