There On Her Roof

Nothing works

Everything is wrong.

Everyone’s a bunch of jerks

No one gets along.

It's almost like I sing this song of happiness

Just for everyone to turn the volume button down.

Just for everyone to be annoyed and continue their evil ways.

Possibly it's just a phase.

Possibly this will only be for a few days.

I’m all alone.

No one is here.

Everyone and everything is unknown.

I’ve shrunk to just bone. 

Why can’t I grow above?

Why can’t I be full of love?

I sit here

As my mind tries to be clear.

So high.

But why?

To die?

No that's not it.

I deny.

I need to rely

My mind is like a city

Noise

Movement.

Maybe I just need improvement. 

But wait.

What's that? 

There's a noise to break my outside silence 

A dove.

Here with me

High above.

He’s here

He always has been.

The Holy Spirit is right here.

He makes everything work.

He makes everything right.

He is kind

He’s my bind.

He lets me sing my song of happiness 

And he grows it to higher heights than I am right now.

He lets me know not to stress.

Yes.

I am making progress.

And I will be success.

This is based off a true story about my friend. She was on her roof struggling when a dove came. Dove represent the Holy Spirit and God's presence. At that moment she knew she was okay.
