I have loved from afar, unrequited
Sat on cobblestone ledges in the rain
Stared at the stars waiting for answers
Mocked the moon that hid its flight
I’ve watched love bloom between others
Pondered why the night sky cries alone
And only when clouds have come to visit
Felt nights cold truth of fear in my bones
I sat remarkably nakedly in the city courtyard
Remained unnoticed, void of any questions
From a stranger asking how my day has been
For that matter, the same could be said of friends
It seems it is easy to completely disappear
When you hang around people who don’t care

Where flight became stalled
Because fear stood its ground
There- is where I- was reborn
Where I relearned my reality
As broken fragments of a self
Where I’ve seen the unveilings
Of time, truth, and Holy love
Where angels cried and wept
For my salvation and healing
And I- wept along with them
Where fire seared my mission
Forged into my soul as passion
A combatant for the wounded
Of humanities silenced…truths

One can certainly feel alone when in a crowded room if the room is filled with those who don’t care. Well said!
