I Step Aside

I've not posted in entirely too long.
Time to get the juices flowing again...

I Step Aside

You in your world and I in mine
With a tear in my heart, I step aside

Such times God's will the hurt sustains
Lately seems a constant refrain
Yet who am I to block your path?
To be His hands, a worldly salve

You in your world and I in mine
With a rip in my heart, I step aside

A heavy chested, bellowed roar
Frustrations I allow no more
In my meekness your embrace
For your love I fear to chase

You in your world and I in mine
With a wound in my heart, I step aside

A final grasp, chest to chest
Yet longer still at your behest
Oh, how I wish your heart to tend
But with a sigh and a tear I'll let it end

You in your world and I in mine
With a weakened heart, I step aside.
