I sang only for him
until tonight
My voice
for the first time
was for others
They heard me
they heard him
they felt us
Hands of thunder filled the air
but could not drown out the whisper
of the one I wanted to make proud
Until attentions unwanted angered him
Not tonight
no anger tonight
Revelation of our voice
must be followed by revelation of our souls
heaven sent
and earth bound
Finally
we are
