Surrender

It sounds so simple
To the uninitiated

Surrender

Give up
Release it
Let go
Change
Transform

Surrender

But it’s not that easy
Especially if you’re human

We think we know it all
We can do it all ourselves
With no help
But we can’t
We must

Surrender

Let it all go
Release our controlling grip
Hand it over
Be humbled
And weak

Only when you’ve nowhere else to turn
Are you willing to try anything else

Only then will you

Surrender

I pray I never have anywhere else to turn
That I’m weak so I can do nothing but surrender
I’m tired of thinking I’m strong
I’m tired of “having a grip”

All I want is to surrender for good

But it’s not quite that simple
