Song

I am broken like the #system

Of ambulances ringing out…

I have no strength left within me,

I no longer wish to shout.

There is a song in my head

It is beautiful and freeing;

And all who have gone before

Are the ones I am now seeing.

They come with smiles and open arms;

They come with the light of the moon;

They tell me they miss me;

Perhaps it’s time to join them soon.

Aware

If I can let you go,
I can let it all go.
You who have carried me,
Through the ages
And loved a soul I don’t know I have.
You have seen me
Through word and pain
And there and back
And there and back again.
If I can let you go
And bear such mighty despair,
Your strength is now my name,
For, in letting go,
You have made me very aware.

Show and Tell

Covid decimates the body

Love decimates the heart

So, they are allied.

Covid shows

People can never be vaccum;

Love shows

The heart is indefatigable.

They both prove to you

The strength you actually have

Surpassing that of your own hope.
