I AM Unexpected

From between the cracks where I slipped
comes a small clear voice below a whisper  
When no one will see you and know how to    
recognize what you are and need  
   
I will be with you in your obscurity    
I will rise above you and will be your cloak  
I will overshadow you with unexpectedness    
You will be the dark horse no one expects  
   
In birth, in school, in prayer, in work, in politics    
at home, abroad, online, in heart, in mind, on the grind  
you will be forgotten, mocked, bullied, threatened    
But your hope will be a Phoenix eternal
