Same coin, different side

And this man wrapped Jesus around his shoulders;
he wore him like a robe

baptized on a Sunday morning; I swore
I saw a halo shine above his head

He used Jesus as a reference to my heart
and I accepted that resume with
no reservations– willingly wrapping
my dreams around his.

My first mistake was believing that
made him different…
