Sonoran desert
sacred, hot breathed
scorch of footsteps, blood red sands
sun bleached bones and skulls
this wash a hallowed holy ghost
an unnerving place of hiss and fire
molten sun to dry the water
a drowning fever of prickly sweat
last night the Yaqui man you met
undulating in a purification ceremony
lashing energy cords cut
he is laughing like coyote, wild eyed
green the velvet desert peyote
awakened you have come to understand
a universe within a fleck of sand.

Even though you may not realize it, you have the strength.
To not only Overcome but to keep pushing through Life.
For Christ has place the Holy Spirit within you my Friend.
Even though you may not realize it, you have been Healed.
Even though you may not realize it you do have Hope too.
For Christ loves you and shall never give you more then you can handle.
For he gives you everything that you need , for each moment.
Even though you may not realize it at this here very moment.
You have been by far more Blessed then you have realize it.

My heart wanted you long before I really understood it. It knew the moment you asked me my name in yearbook class. It knew the moment you gave me your phone number.

My heart knew you would break it before I fully understood that. It knew the moment you called me a few months after not speaking to me. It knew the moment you kissed me goodbye as I flew back home.

My heart seems to know more than my head sometimes... And yet I seem to still follow my brain a but more. My brain told me you were just confused. My brain told me I was just being over dramatic.

But... My heart knew that the mountain I was about to climb was steep and unsteady. My brain told me it was just a hill and I could easily get over it with just a little more effort.

I should have followed my heart a little more...
