Grace

change is gonna come
its gonna come
like the waves 
upon the sand
onto the shore
of your heart

and when it  comes
fragments of you
will be washed away
into the great expanse of blue

and some fragments of you
will be left behind
on the shore

be
like the grain of sand
that does not look for its brother
that has been washed away

the grain of sand simply "is"
it does not seek to be
anything other

so i say to you
that change is gonna come

everything
is change
we are saturated in it
there is nothing to hold on to

only fear
keeps us here
on this shore of grief

the fear that grips
and binds
and injures
us

so i say to you "let go, let go, let it be"

as the sand
lets the sea wash away its brother
let your life fall
and trust
and know

that in the falling
there is grace

there is always grace
