strangers become comfortable after a time and the stoic faces of the old are alive when they are free to tell their stories this is what I live for the stories the orbs that roam the mountainside at night many years after the crash that took all aboard the lights that flicker same time every year on a deceased husband's birthday the cries of a child calling for her mommy repeated each night looped in time down the halls of this 300 year - old brick house where her mommy died from a fall I have known the gentle touch of a kind spirit and the angry wrath from the darkest of entities I did not seek these gifts they were given and I follow with open mind and soul for I live in the peace and comfort of what this awareness provides that there is more much more beyond this final breath
