When We Pray Alone

When I pray alone
I lay down these blood and bones
And I’m made light.
I am light.
 
When we pray alone
We are light.
 
When I pray alone
I am not alone
A sort of coming home
To the light.
I am light.  
 
When we pray alone
We are light.  
 
When I pray alone
All of me is gone
And I feel so right at home
In the light.
I am light.  
 
When we pray as one
We lay down these blood and bones
And are made light.
We are light.  
 
When we pray as one
We are light.  
 
R.

Author's Note
This was inspired by Rumi. ‘when we pray alone’. I read that poem before singing this on the video. 🙏🏽💜🙏🏽
