What Love Does

I am small, but I am valuable
Like a precious vase, I was also fragile
I had been broken
Again and again
Shattered on the floor of hopeless circumstance

I came to the orphanage in pieces--
Too small to be put together again
I didn't know I was broken--
I only knew that I hurt badly
That my feelings were hurt
And I knew loneliness
As intimately as I knew my own small hands and feet

I was my country's burden that it didn't want to bare

Then, Love found me
Love enveloped me and called me by name
Others like me didn't even know their name when Love found them
Love fed me, clothed me, and gave me assured safety
Piece by piece I was repaired
I know Love now


Love will never let me go.
