I want to reach you.
Yet you seem so far away.
I want to reach you,
But my hands are nailed in place.

I want to reach you.
But your words push me aside.
Bound by unbelief,
My sacrifice is tied.
Can I reach you?
Or will you mock my smitten state.
Spit at my hopeless sacrifice.
And curse me to my face.
Can I reach you?
Or will I stay nailed to a tree.
Pierced by your harsh words,
As you constantly deny me.
My life I gave,
With my arms stretched out
And smashed into a cross,
Leaving me broken. Yet without
You I knew I was incomplete,
Lost, without a cause,
And I knew that with every drop, my
blood,
Was worth My loss.
So here I am, paralyzed, in unbelief,
Broken both inside, and out.
Longing to hold you,
But forcibly done without.
Hoping for the healing of a broken
heart,
Though it's thrown in my face,
Begging of you to see my misery,
And remove me from this place.
I've been pinned here too long,
Sealed in agony beyond compare,
Waiting for you to remove me,
And embrace the love I share
For you, and your purpose,
Your empty writhing heart.
If you would just, please, let me reach
you.
We weren't meant to be apart.

Can
I reach you.
