Orchestra M - 112 & 113

I didn't want to let on

And risk the moments’

Evaporation by exposure

But years ago

You called me ‘brother’

And invited me to see

More than I do already,

So to let you know, seated Side by side, sharing auric Field, curbed by colors,

Watching possibility dance

Into promised reality before

Our eyes, tuned to our heart,

I saw you grow, I did. I saw You not leaving me standing Alone, but rising because That's what Spirit does

And brothers do,

Not by might or power

But by standing together

When it feels safer to sit it out, to risk missing the beat

And clapping anyway,

To noticing the skill

You might lack but breathing

Like you belong anyway Because, of course, you do.

I saw you, felt the fear,

The risk calculation,

The buy in, the letting go,

And I saw you stand in belief and exhale -

That is what standing in faith

Can look like and like being Seen, as I see you now, trying, Risking, growing, believing Again, even pressed for Visible reasons why but you Remain, as you will, unable

To contain your loving heart

Even behind your arms

Crossed chest, hope will rise,

And from beside you or not,

I’ll beam watching you grow.
