Dear church;

I have so many questions
so many things to find out
that someone needs to answer

Why do you love on me
so much?
Haven’t you been paying
attention to what I’ve done?

I’ve tried to get it right
time and again I’ve tried
but I can’t seem to
no matter what

Yet- you’re there
Its like everytime
I need someone
you’re there

It might not be the
person I want but
rather, the one I need

I can’t fathom
your love for me
it’s like i have other sets of
parents
grandparents
siblings
that I’m not actually
related to

you were there
through some of the hardest
times that I’ve ever
had to go through
yet you never complained

and I don’t get it.
Why?
can you tell me please?

I’m grateful for you
truly grateful
without you
I might have died
and left this world
a colder place.

So in closing,
I just wanted to say
thank you
for being you.

Love, Me
