Where the Light Leaks In

There's a home behind the silence. I learned to live with it. Every mirror shows

a ghost. Someone I used to be the most. Hands still tremble,

heart still tries. I'm not healed, but I'm alive. And in the cracks I tried

to hide. Something golden stayed inside. Where the light leaks in.

I start to breathe faith. Finds a home inside of me.

I'm not whole. I never win. But I'm learning to begin.

Where the light leaks in. I heal. In the space where pain turns

real. All my saints were just mistakes. Their mercy kept for Heaven's sake.
