Oh! The times I’ve tried
To reach through the pall
Of all- my envisioned dreams
And bring you here into my life
Oh! I can’t begin to even count
But I’ve felt them, unmistakably
I don’t want to just dream, anymore
A million miles from your fingertips
Rescue me- with your open arms
From this mere perpetual vision
Tell me, tell me now the truth
I have to know, are you really real
Or just my hearts hoped, illusion?
And if I- cannot pull you to me
Dream woman, pull me … to you

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
