Before You

Before you, you find my heart laid out for judgment unafraid for with the grace of a falling leaf my words are my prayers played. Before you, you find my fears shivering, before all, displayed. With the gentlest touch of doe eyes my words are my prayers played. Before you, you may find joys like sheaves of golden grain arrayed, may your soul be lightened in sharing my words are my prayers played. Before you, understood, calm for your judgment is now waylaid since we are only human beings my words are my prayers played.
