A Voice Made of Wood and Steel
Isn’t it strange? When we struggle to pray, silence robs our expression
And here you are
I put you in a bag, leave you aside
Why do I do that?
You are my voice when words falter
Wood and steel
Strings that ring, calling me to whisper my needs to you
Wood resonates, and the words unbidden echo
In my soul
Like the melodies from you
need a voice
yours helps me find it
Maybe
Your presence
Makes me feel less abandoned
I’m not really sure
I just know
When I hold you in my hands
And you sing
I feel alive
Covid has stolen my expression
But yours still sings
Teach me
How to echo
Your melody
And begin
To remember
Mine
