I’m so scared of being alone
--unadored, unromanced--
I didn’t realize until today
just how much it frightened me

It keeps me in a corner
locked away
stagnant

I can’t grow when I’m like this

Is God enough for me?
Do I mean it?
Do I truly trust Him to make me feel--
loved

It takes faith
that kind of feeling

I could tell Him to prove it
but the truth is, He already has
with a cross
with His son
it’s just a matter of
me
belief

I hope I'm ready to believe
