into the light dear soul
all is a stepping stone to love!
cradled in your gaze
in the absence of movement
are we one - at peace?
Turmoil within people often leads to conflict between people and peoples. I fervently hope we can find a sense of togetherness
pyramids            crumble
one again with the desert
scattered   to   the   winds
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
I never meant to let you in
I let my door open but just a crack
I was not in a place where
I believed happiness should be
I needed to find myself
That's just what I did
I didn't expect to see you there
Along side me
Breaking the chain
That let you peek in
I am not an easy person to like
I fight kindness every turn
I know you've seen this
Yet, still you stay
You've broken my defenses
My walls have crumbled
But just around you
I feel vulnerable but safe
Still, I feel I need the safety
The safety of my cage
The wires and bars
That only let you peek in
I may have found myself
You along with me
This is foreign
*I'm not used to being free
I believed my defenses impenetrable...

We met on a bridge over a dry stream

we were always meeting on bridges

and when we finally said goodbye

we had run out of bridges to cross

our friendship set sail for the stars.
