Subsisting more like a rural scenic prop
The weathering comes on unexpectedly
Lost somewhere between broken treetops
Scattered amongst all the obvious things
I’ve become like an unnoticed shadow
Becoming quieter as the world turns
As I fall away from your windows
The way fog dies in passing currents
There once was in a missing time
A wild and seemingly unending season
Me, when I was the brightest of light
And the world was the darker servant
Full circle is how this is oft described
We live in worldly winds as a candlelight
Clinging to our own frail existence self
Secretly, wanting to be counted…forever

Where flight became stalled
Because fear stood its ground
There- is where I- was reborn
Where I relearned my reality
As broken fragments of a self
Where I’ve seen the unveilings
Of time, truth, and Holy love
Where angels cried and wept
For my salvation and healing
And I- wept along with them
Where fire seared my mission
Forged into my soul as passion
A combatant for the wounded
Of humanities silenced…truths
