Leave me

Whenever I find myself,
lost among the crowds of memories,
of these last few years
I am overcome with the realisation,
of long forgotten laughter
and dried up tears

Of this one thing, I am certain
I am better off for it
You thought I would drown trying to return to you,
but I am enjoying this beach where you abandoned me
Stripping the shame from it’s pride
I have found and overcome the war inside

Now you will find me loitering
on the path less taken
Please leave me be
This is the place I go to escape myself
It is where I run to, to be free

Retracing His blood-soaked steps
Searching the stones He stumbled upon
I am inspired by the decision,
that cost Him everything
Dear World forsake me now
Leave me.
On the road of my King.
