Random times it’s like losing you
From the very beginning- again
The pit in my stomach widens
And life just suddenly falls in it
Even time itself seems impacted
My breath goes shallow, shortened
Ignorant denial wants to deceive me
Days remain dimmer and hollow
My heart clings to cherished memories
Created in real-time and laughter’s
Whispers of one-sided conversations
Are now some of my better moments
Though they’re oft spoken with tears
They’ll never compare…to authenticity

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

I know, I guess sadly, some feel more than others.
