if i could like you were

by becoming whole - Not entered

if i could be half as amazing as you, 
i'd be beyond perfect
if i could be as strong
my spirits would never die out
if i could be as humble
there would be nothing i ask for, but love
if i coul dlove everyone like you do
if i could die for everyone like you did
if i could just listen to everyone like you do
if i could shed my tears, my own blood
but i can't.
it is only you who keeps me safe,
who listens,
who cries,
who makes me smile,
who loves me,
who helps me,
who carries me,
who died for me,
that's you Lord, and all i have to do, is love you back.

Reason for writing:

    i was at a bible camp, and i realized how wrong i was living my life, and now i am trying to turn things around
