Arrested Development







Connected by spirit, love, and now----uncertainty

Worthy of effort still

Unsure of how to make it back

Unclear on how we got here

Once the sweetest thing we’d ever known

Soured by some of the life we’ve lived

Wise enough to cherish us in the midst of it all

Will fight for our love til’ peace be stilled.

Sent to one another like a birthright 

Knowing we’re still here is something, even when it feels like there’s nothing left to give

Lately silence has become our favored scripture

Saving us from having more to feel.

A love that serves as both pain point and healing source

Covered in a veil of complexity and will

Clear as the cerulean sky

Still wanting what the other has to give

Yet we tread through the murkiest of waters

Held faintly by grasped fingertips

Giving the last droplets of what we've got

Even when there’s no guarantor on the investment.

For granted neither is taken

Just can't figure out how to make it back from wherever we’ve been

So much love locked deep inside


Too proud to see it’s wedged behind a wall made of dust not steel.

Yearning to be free in our love again

Back when it felt right to talk about any and everything

As a piece of our truth we must know the answers

Are we working to beat the odds or end being at odds? We need a sign from Him.

We’ll know what to do when He tells us

So, we can stop feeling like dandelion seeds pushed by a powerful wind.

Let's work to find our way back or at least somewhere

Not sure we will find this again.

But what if this love was only supposed to fill us up some?

Recommitment, clarity, exploration, different paths; are we mature enough to see them

all as wins?

We must steady ourselves, as neither symbolizes an end.

Marriage is the afterthought of commitment

We must breathe deeply as proof of life in our souls.

Marriage is the afterthought of commitment

Sometimes two halves still don’t equal a whole.
