Somewhere far away
Under a starless sky,
I lie waiting for a word
A word, any word,
But still, a word that will make me come alive.
The night goes on, and my heart is heavy,
The night goes on, and I cry, I sing, and I pray
And no word comes, no wind blows, and no fire burns.
Just tears fall,
Just the heart yearns for a place to belong,
A place to be shepherded,
A place not forgotten,
A place of my own,
A place of comfort,
A place of home,
A place
With someone
Who remembers
I am still here.
