I have flown high and low

I have bled
Have been beaten up
Have lost a loved one and fought with God
Have considered escape

I have felt hate
Have felt numbness
Have bled others
Unleashed my anger and wished to kill
Have sentenced myself

I have felt love
Have touched the skies on a starry night
Felt the whole planet under the palm of my hands on the day God came down to visit me
Have flooded souls with the best in me, soothing and freeing…
Have tried to forgive

Thought I knew it all
But found out I know nothing

Nevertheless, all seems small near the greatness of your presence.

Thank you for coming… thank you for freeing me from myself… thank you for making my tears tumble down as happiness takes over… thank you for offering me your trust…

Now I understand… thank you.
