They did not hold me.
Perhaps I wasn't theirs to hold.
Neither did they recognize me,
For the light streaming from my soul
Broadcast an unfamiliar wavelength.
Knowing I was a gift,
A simple yet beautiful melody,
Angels kept me close,
Saw me with the eyes of love,
Hearing my anguished cries,
Kept me safe from above.
Lately, I don't mind
They weren't up to the task,
That I was a question
They couldn't bring themselves to ask.
I release them from their role,
Urge them to walk toward the embrace
Of the One who forgives all...
Lately, I don't mind.
As a dark curtain parts,
I stand alone on the platform
Feeding a dove.
I am safe. I am sound.
I am loved.
