I am moving through my sorrow,
Allowing it to flow from my bones
So that I may float to the surface
And unfurl my wings
To run and leap
And fly.
Lighter I have become within the releasing
And higher I rise within the stillness that
Comes taking me deeper within each breath.
She sees him from behind the looking glass.
Only he knows where she lives in her heart.
Others fumbling
While he arrives;
She welcomes him
In.
He brings with him a sorrow they share
And with that sorrow they build a funeral pyre;
Flames burning through the
Past to the now and they rise
As one in waves of heat and light
In love.
There they remain
To dance.
To sing,
To
Be.
Hear the music.
I have planted myself
And keep grasping the earth with
All my strength.
Yet my
Tender flowers do
Whither
From the weight of sorrow.
Hollow sighs escape my lips.
I am
No longer reaching.
How full these petals might bloom at the sight
Of the
Sun;
Or your face.
I
Taste your sorrow.
Damp cheek to cheek.
Warm heart to heart.
Everything is okay here in the
Dark.
We feel each others scars as if a map to the galaxy
Itself.
Us,
High with
Need and awe.
Now glowing in the night
Filling the shadows with envy.
Ah
But I breathe.
I hear a sigh escape your lips
As you see the colors too.
As you see the wind pulling the leaves from the trees.
They do their final dance for us.
And they return to the
Earth
That nourished them.
Some ride the wind so delicately.
Others seem out of control
As if fighting the pull of gravity.
Ultimately they all fall.
We endure.
I feel the warmth of your skin
As
You move closer.
This knowing between us,
It is time to hold each other.
This sorrow,
We must let it envelope us
If we are to ever love through winter.
She stood in the doorway
With her back to the sun
Knowing this was
The last
Time
She would see him.
And her heart filled with
Sorrow
Though her soul
Was at peace.
And her eyes filled with tears.
They fell to the floor
As she stood in the door
With her back to the sun.
She had nothing left
To prove.
Nothing left to hold.
Only the truth she would carry as
She turned and walked away.
Looking forward
For the first time
She could remember
To the light of a new day.
Never again would she turn her back to the sun.
Please look to the sky today.
Marvel.
Marvel at something.
A tree.
A blade of grass.
A bird.
A raindrop.
Marvel at the intricate details
All around you.
Breathe in life.
Let it fill you up.
Feel the energy beating
Just beneath the surface
With every step you take.
You are connected to everything
And everyone.
Give yourself permission
To feel.
Feel the sorrow.
Most of all,
Feel the love.
Feel the joy.
It becomes you.
