Unbaptized Words
Certificate unsigned,
pen firmly in hand
The bliss not for barter,
its insight free-stands
Faith and acceptance
may go where they please
To my grave and beyond,
the verse teaches and frees
No savior I ask for,
forgiveness I shun
Redemption for others,
new ink on the run
Till one day uncovered,
hidden deep on the shelf
A message unchristened,
buried dark and unfelt
Where the voice I was gifted,
and the music I heard
In themselves live forever
