Safe, Loved, Guided and Protected
Verse 1
I’ve walked through storms with trembling hands
Felt the weight I couldn’t understand
But even in the darkest night
There was a whisper wrapped in light
Pre-Chorus
Not alone, not forsaken
Every breath, a vow unshaken
Chorus
I am safe, loved, guided and protected
Held by grace I never expected
Even when the road is rough
Even when I don’t feel enough
I am safe, loved, guided and protected
By something deeper, something sacred
Verse 2
I’ve chased approval, feared the fall
But now I hear a higher call
Not to prove, but to receive
The truth that’s always lived in me
Bridge
No need to run, no need to hide
The light I seek is on the inside
Every scar, a sacred sign
That I’ve been carried all this time
Final Chorus
I am safe, loved, guided and protected
By a love that’s never been neglected
Even when I lose my way
Still I rise, still I stay
I am safe, loved, guided and protected
And I am whole, not just corrected

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

Hey, My elder sister used to read them to me, and as I grew up, my love for stories only got stronger. I started with books, and now I enjoy reading on different writing platforms. Today, I came here just to read some stories, and that’s when I found your writing. From the very first lines, it caught my attention the more I read, the more I fell in love with your words. So I just had to appreciate you for this beautiful work. I’m really excited to hear your reply!
