Within Her Love
Alone with tears that burned my eyes I woke,
My soul degraded and torn by the god of man
An alien amid both church and clan
The fragility of self long since broke.
And thus I searched the filthy city smoke
For answers that revealed a greater plan
Like a bridge to cross a meaningless span
Her voice called out to quash my fear, she spoke.
Revealing truth in Nature’s ancient ways
I was like a child, lost and out of sight
Until I learned to pray for her delight.
And though she made me face the end of days
She gave me strength to rise above their scorn
Within her love my soul shall be reborn
