Heighten

I am thinking it’s a sign, just when I’m thinking I am alone you always seem to be 
able to come and join me in my MIND
I have now come to terms, when I mumble and we get in rumbles you’re always 
the first to get down and grumble FIRST
And true, I may not speak my mind, but please forgive thee for my vocals are 
weak and my emotions just intimidate ME
For you, accepting all of me, though my feelings play hide and seek you’re 
always able to catch and grab a firm hold of ME
They will say what they want to say, but we’ll never separate, no not now, but 
somehow
They will see if there’s a higher being it doesn’t matter what one believes this is 
my vow
I will pray to whom it may concerns my sins will burn I may show apathy, but trust 
me
I’ll do what it takes to join you in the pearly gates it just takes time, to cross that 
line
So I won’t say no, but know there’s heighten hope
