::: Well Loved :::

I dreamt there was a flood
but it couldn't quench my thirst
and then there was a fire
which wasn't warm
it was painful as I watched it
but I couldn't look away
the stars fell from heaven to my feet

they cut me as I walked
but still I went ahead
through a night that wouldn't shine
though the moon wouldn't set
and the sun feared to rise
in this darkness

it was then that I noticed
I was bandaged by your hands
held together against this fearful life
it really made me wonder
how someone as selfish as I
should ever be so well loved
