Pondering Poetry...worth sharing?

some of the people don't get me
chances are they'll never see
i can't explain the things that be
someday God will set us free

i didn't ask to be in this place
i only believed in the given grace
i didn't want to be a lonely face
i just wanted to be embraced

He said my eyes were getting dim
He said He wanted to fix them
adjusted vision would make me spin
but i just had to trust Him

He said i'd be confused at first
He said the beginning would be the worst
i would adapt, and although i cursed
so gently that He nursed

a coocoon He spun and wrapped me in
i lay in a sleepy restful skin
He said wait till it gets thin
then i'd emerge and life would begin

now He's training me to fly
freedom in the great blue sky
butterfly begins, the old self dies
on Him i can rely

for He feeds the birds and trees and bees
and watches over them with ease
as i rise and fall upon His breeze
i realize that He loves me.
