I Will
I am undone
How can you bear to be so patient,
To softly call and see me pass you by?
To know I hear the sigh of Your breathing me
in, and out, in and out with Your gentle, terrifying question,
“Will you?” “Will You?” “Will YOU?”
I am exposed
How can I bear to be so frightened;
To hear my sudden answer, “Yes”, and not know the reason why?
To know it came from ME when I wasn’t there at all,
To know I answered true, I answered true.
