Nobodies
Christ,
Hanging on that cross
Did you know my name
Did you see from there
This my sometimes
lonely way?
Born alone
Into a freezing cold
I took my first breath
Orphans too have souls
Tossed about
In waves
Beyond my control
Landed at last
upon a very rocky shoal
bent but not
completely destroyed
created in, by the light
not just for an evil’s toy
I sat alone, waiting
existing within your might
A nobody,
One of the Least
of the least of
The Least
Rejected in a
World’s insanity
Why do we not love
These Our own,
Parts of ourselves
I too belonged here also
Yet as
You hung upon that cross
You turned your face
Upon my future
Offered me your grace
Yay, I’m saved!
