I Want You

I don't talk to You anymore.
I used to take hours on the floor,
Knocking at Your door.

Have I lost something,
Or is it just because?
Maybe it's because You're here
And it's no longer a must.

I silently acknowledge Your power,
And You hear me without my effort.
I quickly signal You less than hours
As I have done before Father.

Do I still love You?
Do I really do?
Maybe I just trust You,
Is that the truth?

Let me know my heart,
And change it for good,
Because when I talked
Before it was understood,
That I needed help,
And that's why I mostly came,
But I saw glimpses of love
Of all that You have made.

But this heart I see,
Has compromised from You,
As if I only talked
If I got something good.

Please kill that portion of me,
I struggle in this life of vanity,
Because it seems I only care,
For things I want from Your Christmas tree.

Did I forget You?
Or do I just trust
You're there?

I want to love You,
I want to be aware.

I want to be in awe of You,
Not for things You made,
But to love You as You are,
Nothing attached,
Let all things fade.
