I'm not like you


You're all here, right beside me
and yet so far away.
You're all one, singing of joy and glory.
I am merely a stray.

I don't fit in. I'm not like you.
I truly don't belong
with you in the light. Tis not for me.
But surely I can long?

Let me sit here, just outside your circle.
Let me hope. Let me dream.
Let all that light of yours reflect in my eyes.
You're so supreme.
