Every day I hear
the voice of truth
even when they
would tell me
it is only
the sound of the wind,
try to convince me
that I was going mad.
Every day I hear
the voice of truth,
but they claim
it could not be so.
Because anything true
would never waste a moment
on a worthless
being like me
Every day I rise
to speak with God
despite their efforts
to tell me
that God
does not hear me,
to have me believe
I am invisible.
As God shows me my strengths
and their frailties,
everyday I walk into
a world of possibilities.
