Deja vu

Poet of the Light creative writing October 1, 2020October 1, 2020 1 Minute

Today I chased your shadow

I couldn’t see it mind you

But I could feel its presence

Here- deep in my heart

Yet, just out of my fingers reach

And hard as I tried to catch it

I lost it inside moon lit rays

That hastily escaped over the ocean

It rained, I just couldn’t see it fall

I felt small, powerless- and all alone

It was like losing you…all over again

Ascribe 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 Poet of the Light © 2023 I write meaningful (to me) poetry from my heart and share it here.
