Cut the cord

So the ground shifts again
And I've done something
I never thought I would do.

I regretted it almost immediately
But I'll stay the course

Believing this will help us
In the end.

Continuing to fix my eyes on Jesus
The Author and Perfecter of my faith
I put aside, for now
This burden of still loving you
When you no longer love me.

And maybe someday in the future
I may turn back, and be surprised

Either to find you with open arms, smiling
Like I'd dreamed a million times

Or to find the burden gone
Melted away while I wasn't looking
Drained quietly from the shrinking hole
In my heart.

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I wish you well.

I can be free
I can be free from this place
Beautiful Healer
Beautiful grace
Help me to see
Everything fall into place
Wake me from dreaming
No more deceiving
Break these chains

~Corrinne May, "Free"
