Come Back to Me

Do you remember
Those days of wonder
When you were on fire
Eager with desire
I was your priority
And now I'm the minority
It's a slippery slope
Letting go of hope
Worldly worries, worldly wealth
No longer on fire you began to melt
You drowned in confusion
I was only an illusion
A simple distraction
A shift of a fraction
That's all it takes
And your faith breaks
The thorns live to choke
And before you knew it you broke
My child, come back to me
You will thrive, a fruitful tree
For you are not defined
By past mistakes, but refined
Washed by the water
Slave no longer
Come back to me
And you will see
Through my eyes
And you'll be surprised
How beautiful life can be
When you live life free
So come back to me.
