The One in a Pew Away

Looking through the stained glass with thoughts of pain,

 reminiscing remains of the old life.

 from a tear-stained memory, her heart ‘s slain.

 Broken pieces caused utter, bitter strife,

 But memory fades into sepia.

 The chain of events set into motion;

 time healed her heart ‘s aching paranoia.

 And changes of life taught her to go on.

 Imploring, she heard a voice kept saying:

 “My child, give me the broken pieces so

 that heartaches fade into distance, leaving

 the past hurts you had — so you can let go.

 Like a needle in a haystack it may,

 you ‘ll find love maybe just a pew away.”
