Too..
I shield myself against you
You are too bright
With brilliant vivid colors
Too loud
With words of love
Too perfect
For my flawed mind to comprehend
Too dangerous
For my worn heart to handle
Too trusting
For my lies to take effect
Too strong
For me to push against
Too self sufficient
For you too need me
Too taken
With the girl I present
Too wise
To think I'm truly okay
Too loving
For me to resist
Too handsome
For me not to desire
Too thoughtful
To anger me
Too courteous
For me to find fault
Too blameless
For me to rage against
The ultimate contradiction
To the things I represent

This day and time who knows
Hurricanes and Tropical storms
Out of these danger forms
Tornadoes
by Ed Ostrom
O Lord You are my Shield,
Here to You My heart I now yield,
I wait O Lord on You,
Your refining work in me do,
In You O Lord
