Untangled














You lift me from my tangled threads of story,
though I grab back at them, keep trying
to catch them up, to follow them,
to tease them out

Your hand is firm,
You hold me still
until I recognize
I was not ever tied
to all those histories,
never bound to those projected outcomes

I have always been 
determined solely
by Your essence.
Your untroubled knowing of who I am
sings me into being 
in every moment,
never moved by any other force,
hallowed, safe, and steady on my course.
