Can I?

My heart cries out

Can I be found

In this nebulous haze

Of broken stars

And endless days?

Can I be seen

By perfect eyes

Since my heart

In darkness lies?

Can I be heard

Beyond the noise

Of meaningless words

From an empty voice?

Can I be known

For who I am

Without the worry

Of who I’ve been?

I hear a reply

You are found

I searched through it all

I took your hand

And brought you home

You are seen

You cannot now hide

For even in the dark

The stars will shine

You are heard

I know your voice

The world cannot drown you

In petty white noise

You are known

I made you by hand

I’ll trade your past

For the future I have
