“We’re all just walking each other home.”
―
I got lost in sadness with no way out,
my heart was filled with terrible doubt,
I could not feel my inner glow,
the land was distant
the lights were low…
In dense air, my breathing dimmed,
disorientated by
unforgiving winds…
Doubt grew thicker
I could not see,
the fog muffled my desperate pleas…
Only light could save me from despair,
in the guise of tender loving care…
I’d slipped into pits
of unbearable pain,
I knew these wounds
were preordained…
and tears must fall and grief must be,
to bring me back to sanity…
and the time will come when I revisit sorrow,
maybe next month,
maybe tomorrow…
but my hope is that every earthling knows
that a Mother’s heartache is a dreadful blow…
that my body weeps, as it should
all I need is to be understood…
to visit lands where grief is allowed,
and reach beyond these temporal shrouds…
to see horizons gleaming with hope,
and set my feet on Elysium slopes…
