Never Forsaken

In the static of midnight. When the voices start to call. Every shadow says

I'm nothing, but your promise breaks it all. arrows of doubt in

the darkness. Words like knives in the rain. People turn their backs and whisper.

Every sentence dripping blame. But you wrap arm around my heartbeat.

Shield of mercy, belt of grace. When I fall beneath the pressure. You lift me

to a higher place. They can hate and walk away. Call me broken,

call me strange. But your word is burning louder than the poison and the shame.

You never leave me. You never leave me. You never walk
