AS I AM

I have no single rose to give

Nor diamonds and expensive gifts;

I come to you with no promise ring

For I refuse to make a promise only

God can keep;

My words shall not flatter you

Nor will they make you blush;

My lips will barely utter those words

You long to hear;

My voice shall forever remain lost

As it surrenders to the moment,

That part in time when all is silent

Yet the truth is so loud and clear;

I come to you as I am,

No promises to make;

I come to you with a broken heart

And it is yours to take.
