Your poetry brought me to tears:

"I knew you were

just like us

and we were just like you"

And

"reminding us

that the real spectacle

is love."

Beutiful

Should I apologise? Thank you for reading with empathy, Julie. I know some people who were very badly hurt by condemnation and lack of love and acceptance in church settings, in particular. 🙁

No need for apology. A poet is effective if they stir a response.
