Believe or not
I never thought
anyone would want to read
what I had to say
I never thought
anyone would look at me
and see purity
I never thought
I’d look in the mirror
and like what I see
I never thought
I’d dance with flags
in front of a church

I’d be able to sleep
without a drink

I’d want my kids
to grow up like me
I never thought
I’d wait till my wedding day
to be kissed
I never thought

my own business
I never thought

What may look broken to you
may be breakthrough for me
If you know me, you’ll see
my dance is pure
my heart is holy
my walk is upright
I have integrity
and know my created value
What may look broken to you

believing that
knowing that
walking in that
Truth
What may look broken to you

smoke had filled the air
clearing away
revealing vision
clearer than before
kneeling

with familiar faces

Peace

Jesus living
creates an atmosphere of heaven
in every season
every circumstance
every moment

believing
receiving
victory
of standing tall
with smoke underneath
breathing with ease
sleeping in rest
seeing with clarity
