Prayer

Take the me

I imagine I am

and leave me empty

Take this flesh

take this face

until I am all but an open vessel

for you to use

A surrendered body

for you to dance with

An empty mind

for you to love through

Let me be born again and again

each moment fresh and innocent

No ideas, no fears, no control

just being part of all you are

totally at your service

a slave of love

a slave of oneness

a slave of sacredness

Melted in gratitude

dissolved in awe

that is the only thing

I ever wanted.
