Grab

Standard

There are times this sorrow,

Confusion,

Worthlessness,

Fear

Has grabbed her and yanked her under ;

Beneath the undertow before She can take a breath.

It is then that She has learned to breathe in the water;

Even if She can’t move She keeps breathing.

She stops struggling

and eventually She floats back to the surface;

Someplace unrecognizable.

Someone unrecognizable to her.

New.

Carry

Standard

Let your voice soften,

Bringing stillness to abundance as it

Carries love across the ocean.

In the air

In the waves,

You cover the earth

To reach her;

Your love cannot be contained

And it resonates in the beating chambers of her heart.

No mere dream.

Come morning

She opens her sleepy eyes and looks to the rising sun knowing this.

Stories

Standard

As she was talking of herself,

Telling stories of the past,

She realized fully how

All these memories overflowing with emotions that at the time were so big and real,

Are moments long gone.

They are just words now.

Paint on a canvas to create a picture

For the listener of her

Life.
