Fearfully, I looked inside my weary heart
And found an empty vessel thirsting deeply
To be filled by something grand and bold.
Many things, I consumed with wild abandon
But to my despair, I discovered tiny holes
In my hollow heart, so I was now a sieve
And nothing I consumed filled for long.
The hollow gnawed but no source satisfied,
Each drying up before joy was achieved,
So I sought across the land for a solution
Until He made Himself known with a smile.
“I see your heart is a sieve that longs
For filling and I’ve seen you searching.
How convenient, I have a river of love
That can never run out, twill always flow.”
Too good to be true but I surrendered
To His laughter and merciful, abundant waters
And we began to walk the road together,
So my heart is always full and gladly
I search no more, heart free of fear.
