I stare out- into space listening to
Platitudes of fabricated sentiments
By those who’ve never felt anything
Especially anyone else’s torrid pain
You brought color to my whole life
Before you twas only black and white
I was amazed and thanked God too
The color has now faded in my days
I walk blindless in some form of haze
Even the nights have muted in silence
I no longer see this trail out before me
Nor do I know just where it’s heading
Life’s landscape has become so different
I’m in route to a place I’ve … never been

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
