For Ernyn

All these feelings

I can’t name

All this discontent

Too many folks

I could blame

But my back’s still bent

Far too much force

In this wrecking ball

How I long to stand

But I just fall

Oh, how I’m glad

To proclaim

Grace is not nameless

How love is not

Contingent

Upon performance

How God’s embrace

Has a face

Forever pointing

Toward

Us.
