You Are Seen

You are seen

Even when the whisperers tell you that you are invisible

You are rewarded

Even when you seem to go without genuine merit

You are lauded

Even when the applause falls to the least worthy

You are credited

Even when everyone else is hijacking your praise

You are remembered

Even after the vacuous applause dies with the insidious threat

You are accounted

Even when the just struggle while the disgraceful seem to win

You are loved

Even when you feel most ignored

In a world that is increasingly dishonest, you have only one job:

Pick up their slack

When the ‘powers’ suffer a great falling, lift your spirit through the firmament

Where their integrity is lacking double-down and triple-shift on your own

When they are disgraceful

Endow yourself with every Grace

Put those greedy for notice to shame with your selflessness

Consume the selfish with your overwhelming love

You think you are not seen but everything is seen

You are seen my friend

You are seen by the One Place

The only Place that matters
