I trust that it goes without saying
How deeply and terribly I miss you
Like life, the weather keeps changing
But truthfully, I don’t feel as lucky
In fact, I’ve lost my trivial routines
That served as some sense of balance
In such times lessor than present days
Occasionally I make halfhearted attempts
Of getting back in step- with living me
But even my missteps feel out of place
And at a loss for a real sense of direction
I daydream of you long enough to smile
Grief and unnuanced dress the same now
I’m unsure if that signifies any… progress

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

“Like life, the weather keeps changing / But truthfully, I don’t feel as lucky” – so much said in these two lines. These are so sad and powerful
