The waters flow over that which was hidden
Things protected to protect the world from harm
And you and I are alone in the stillness of night
Closing in all around me like pink satin slippers
Closing in all around my feet after a bath in the bathtub
Or some dandelions blown on a hill overlooking the sea
On a clear cold day when I felt all alone
As though no one could ever hear me
Not anywhere could they hear me and never would
And how I felt so alone
I wanted to find you but I knew not where to look for you
And I felt so alone among everyone else
Long decades I wandered seeking you
Without answer, without hope.  It wasn't Until I was trapped
That I found you like a breath of air on a hot day
I found your photograph among so many others one day
And that was how you found me.  Oh I was lost until then
Now long days spent here are spent sweetly with you
And For That I'm deeply grateful to God
Now the books untold can fill the sea
For you're everything to me
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
