It is not Love



It is not love
to sharpen the knife
before you strike

It is not love
to tie the noose
before you pull it tight

It is not love
to strike with foot
when one lays bleeding

It is not love
to damn another's soul
when it's help their seeking

Turn
walk away
don't lower yourself to your knee
begging me
to love you
when you strike
straight through the heart
with the part
of me
I gave you

It is not love
when you see me down
to twist the knife

It is not love
to spit in my face
and strip me of all pride

It is not love
to take what I told you in the shadows
and use it to bring me to my knees

It is not love
to judge and condemn me
while it's comfort you seek

Turn
walk away
forget you ever knew me
just leave me
where I fall
don't hit me
with your love
I can take
no more
just let me be
go
don't look back
just walk away
from me

It is not love
to break me
when I need healing

It is not love
in your heart
that I am receiving

It is not love
that gives harsh melody
to your voice

It is not love
but love is
my choice

Turn
walk away
let me live
let me breathe
leave me
with memories
once good
let me love
what once was
before hatred
consumes me

Turn
walk away
let me seek
my Father's heart
then
when He's healed me
and I'm no longer
bleeding
our friendship
can find new ground
new boundaries
and
true love
