holding up a building
with the side of an arm
wanting to hear music
to pretend all-is-well
with a heart lost of hope

do they see me
do they care
do they notice my tears
do they care

wanting to be something
losing faith in someOne
giving up all hope
when everything changed
with the scent of heaven

a prayer
a word
a direction to turn
an arrow moving forward
to a future

maybe not all is lost
maybe anxiety bowed down
waters of hope rising up
walking further in love

God knew
God saw
God cared
God loved

a man into wholeness
a mother in her faith
