drown me in you


i pray now for your grace
that you dismantle the fences
i have erected
and uproot those fence-posts

i have firmly posted
to keep you out;
by your mercy
bring down those concrete walls

i have vigilantly constructed
around me,
even as my crooked mind
and stubborn heart

preventing your providence
attending
to my soul’s deepest needs;
flood me with your charm

until i completely
drown in you
my very beginning
my now, and my end
