Love of another John?

I was moved tonight
by a song
it doesn’t sound
like much
the song or the movement
but it broke
something in me
opened some gate
I didn’t know
was barricaded
it was just a
song
although
I know
with all the creative talent
I can muster
that the good ones
are anything but
there was an
awakening
in the lyrics
forgiveness in the melody
we are all
ordinary people
it said
you’ve made mistakes
he said
but anyway
I choose you
what would that feel like?
