Theses Eyes of Mine

These eyes of mine...
Once veiled by the fog
Deceived by the cloak of fear
Seduced by the presence of chaos
Intimidated by the brutality of defeat
Now open to visions of clarity
The presence of possibility now in view
All things laid ahead of you 
Appealing to the hope etched so perfectly in your vision
Open wide, my eyes...
See the veil of torment and alarm being lifted
Open wide, my beautiful eyes...
Witness the defense of your Savior as He pleads to our Father
Watch in awe, my great eyes
As the Father prepares a new vision and offers it to you as a gift
These eyes of mine...
See that you are beautiful
See that your sight has been restored.

For Once...

For once, I would like to look temptation in her eyes and say "I've defeated you".   For once, just once, at the end of the day, I would like to exhale and know I stayed strong . For once, I would like to stand on the edge of the cliff, look over, and not leap. For once, I would like to embrace my inner win . For once, I don't want to end my day with regret. For once, I want to reach the finish line. For once, I want to see to the end of the test. For once, I want to succeed. For once, I want to think it, see it, then accomplish it. For once, I want to say 'I use to'. For once, I want to 'remember when'. For once, I'd like to reflect back on who I was...and see the difference in who I am   For once, I don't want to wish or hope or wonder , For once, I just want to be .
