i see you bring baggage/afraid of God

i see you have baggage, i’m not surprised, just a reminder we are afraid of God

for if we didn’t carry it what would we be, because it’s become such a large part of our identity

the recollections and the pain have come so ingrained what would happen if we were to let go

we are so shaped from the mistakes we have made, forgiving ourselves seems impossible

so in fact we play God and try to hid from the painful series of events

Afraid that God removing them would leave a huge hole to fill

sad to say, it will happen this way but often this is the path it took

one day when the weight became to great i let go of the handles and they dropped

they crashed to the floor and the jolt sprung them ajar and i can recall quite vividly the sight

as the light came in upon all those memories within they began to fade in the light

all those years made me sad and glad, because i was afraid of God

bring it to the light
