I’m called by things that break my heart
A lone and solitary window
A sad and lovely song
A sagging ridge
A lazy eye
An impossibly low ceiling
The lilt and swagger of time’s appendage
All eloquent imperfection
For though my heart is cracked
Light now enters
And I hear what I could not before
This blue and tender voice
Takes me home
And in the walls is the voice I trust
These places where I’ve heard truth
And truth was somehow always beautiful
So my eyes wander
Looking for evidence
And it is always there
Always there
Always
In this broken state
Is tender invitation
This I can do
Here I can love
