People take work
People require time
Our hearts bear
(Self-inflicted) wounds
Our minds transfixed
With crime
How can we speak
Of freedom
When we aren’t ready
To let go?
Of commitment
When all we do is go?
To hold a gaze
To lend an ear
Requires that we pause
Are we bringing people
To ourselves or Him?
To a Savior
Or a cause?
