Sometimes

Rose Polenzani

Compositor: Rose Polenzani

sometimes she says
'I don't believe that anyone will love me.'

sometimes she says
'I don't receive the letters that you write me.
sometimes I fall awake like others fall asleep.'

sometimes she says
'I want to feel the love of God who made me.'

sometimes she says
'I want to speak the language of the ladies.
sometimes I go away when others go to sleep.'

sometimes she says
'I want to kneel before the one who saved me.'

sometimes she says
'I want to keep the loneliness that made me.
sometimes I start my day as others start to sleep.'
