Light in the Dark

A stagnant pulse was interrupted;
My heart engaged a new intrusion
Inside my feelings stayed so hidden.
Outside knew no quarrel.
 
God was never at the blame,
Through pain, my pain remained inside
My secret’s safety bound by laughter.
 
Flowers wounded my arise
And I embraced each thorn with such.
With beauty must come a price
Oh, such a price to pay.
 
But when I raised my hands in prayers
Knees rooted like my mind
No hesitation, despite all
I still begged God for you!
