a prayerful musing

this is something i wrote during a creative worship service at a church i've begun attending. i hesitated to post it, because it's not how i normally write. but nothing is like i thought it would be so...
it's not prose, where i can add explanations and disclaimers and footnotes to make sure i'll be understood. i'm not sure what it is, but here it is. i've done enough explaining already.

rhythmic paradox

I am free while being
protected.

I create my will while
following yours.

I am powerful while being
powerless.

I am destined for failure while
being destined for greatness.

I give and give and give while
constantly receiving from you.

I am his, hers, its while
being yours.

I am alone while
being in your presence.

I am in chaos while
following your order.

I am in pain while
basking in your joy.

I doubt while
still believing.

I go while
you remain.


One day, I may not have a
while
but
or,

but I doubt it,

because

You are the King of Paradox.
