pilgrim's progress

You came into my life

When I badly needed a friend

But couldn’t trust anyone

More so myself

You know how it is when you are

Your least favorite person

You came into my life

When I needed to laugh

That laughter of gay abandon

Mine had become corrupted

Some virus apparently

And it was anti-heal

You came into my life

When I needed me

She was lost somewhere

And a simple search key was not working

You came into my life

When I needed you

To need me

And when you said you needed me

I knew I would need me too.

You came into my life

When I needed life

And you said

I know where it is

I can take you there

You took my hand

And we have just started

our pilgrimage

I seem to have a lot of baggage

I don’t even know if I am a good pilgrim any more

I don’t think I have lost my faith yet

Wounded as I am

You came into my life

Please stay
