I want to stay awake all night
shaping poetry out of your guitar strings
because lately my life has been so
melodious-mellifluous-serendipitous
that I have tuned myself a half-step up
in the hopes that I will trip upwards
towards redemption
and finally run in the direction
of something meaningful
because my life had subscribed
myself to a deist perspective;
refused to attribute personal growth
to a force beyond me
settled for mediocrity
and forgotten what it felt like
to follow Corinthians 1:13
until I felt a presence
outside my being
felt the will to follow the trinity
and let my faith guide me towards
hope for a new beginning
and I swear
I know
I'm following the wrong path towards love
for the right reasons
but I will keep walking
in Your image
