And the rains of
Heaven
Are
Pouring down on me.
Drenching me.
Restoring me
From
Within.
And the rains of
Heaven
Are
Pouring down on me.
Drenching me.
Restoring me
From
Within.
Pardon me while I hold on to
You selfishly from time to time
My child.
For you are part of me.
Infused in my
Bones
And heart,
My being.
Peace settles me completely
When in my arms you sleep.
And supreme joy engulfs me
When your hand in mine
You keep.
Eternally
My heart exceeds mortal capacity
As
I watch you soar.
And always here I am with
A heart of flame if ever you need more
Kindling to begin again
A fire of your own.
Always
Always
A constant abode.
I cannot assimilate.
I am not absolute matter.
I cannot be confined to one thought.
My mind cannot be shaped into one
Definitive
Form.
I am
Ever evolving.
The boat is easing up to the dock.
My friend you have returned
And tears fill my eyes.
Alas the reflection of the summer sun
Upon the water stings my eyes
As I frantically search for you.
My heartstrings play your name as my feet
Carry me to you.
Arms and legs no longer heavy.
Heartbeats fall into sync.
Our smiles speak of perfect happiness.
Bliss unspoken.
And there upon the dock we are home.
Love them,
For with their eyes they see
Merely flesh.
They do not recognize their
Own souls.
They have forgotten their
Hearts;
Misplaced love.
Sometimes I turn my back on
Myself
To stop the writing,
The ever pressing feelings.
Pretend not to listen to all the thoughts
Ricocheting
On my insides.
My heart and head
Moving at the speed of light.
I hold on too tight
Trying to tame them,
Trying to shrink them
That I may grasp and squeeze them
Into ink.
Most often
They do not translate;
They do not fit.
Unsoundness of mind
Prevails.
Alienation my companion.
Sometimes.
People underestimate
How long it can take a wound to
Heal.
They underestimate how much
Gentleness
Is needed in this world
Of strong,
Yet
Tender souls.
She dances in the rain without hesitation,
Unaware of the beauty she brings to the storm.
For even the raindrops
Relish the journey as they free fall from
Heaven,
Praying to be the lucky ones.
The ones to touch her.
Anticipating the precise moment
Of
Contact,
Aching for
Unified saturation.
The light you cast
Has found things hidden in my
Darkness.
With utmost patience you coaxed them out
And to my surprise,
Met them
With grace.
With every breath,
With every action,
We have a choice to be
Apathetic,
Cruel
Or kind.
