Beyond That Cloud

(…and while He had said these things, while they beheld, He was taken up; and a cloud received Him out of their sight…Acts 1:9) Beyond that cloud I know I will find you someday. Someday like you promised me in your word. Your word which promised that I will see how beautiful you are. You are beautiful, for while you got lynched, I got saved. Saved from the jaws of my iniquity. I know I will see you in shinning glamour. In that shinning glamour I will see the once bruised face – A bruised face that found me worthy of so much love. That love that I barely deserved. I will touch the mimed hands – The mimed hands with which you wielded my guilt. The guilt which I carried from my forefathers. My forefathers who chose to remain naked, Nakedness of your glory and mercy – Your glory and mercy which I know I will find beyond that cloud!
