High & Loving


High & Loving

I think there must be something wrong with me
I feel the world,
I hear the world
As if the volume were turned up to max
As if the brightness was on high
As if the colors were painted in neon
People need drugs to get where I live every day…

Sadness is so depressing I weep
Joy so ecstatic I feel like I will die from it
Love so intense, people look at me like I am strange
To feel such things for strangers
Or people I have only known for 30 seconds or less
Anger so loud in my eyes to make people flee…

Am I turned on high because the rest of the world turned off
To protect themselves?
Am I the heart
Billions of inner children buried?
Am I made flesh
Because these inner kids long to love?
Long to be held?
Long for something
Someone
To be that part of the divine
That lives within us all
That can't be put away?

So here I stand
I long for you to feel
I long for you to see
The Love I feel in Me.
The little hopeful soul in you
Has a voice in me.

Dare to love
Dare to trust
Dare to risk
Dare to fail
Dare to try again
Dare to forgive
Dare to heal
The little hopeful cheerleader
Lives despite
The hurt and disappointment,
You can love again
You can love more
I stand before you
A testament that it's true
Borrow my passion
Borrow my faith
Borrow my love
To get you through
Know that there is at least one person
In this world
That truly loves you.
