Feel Again
Alone.
Cold.
Numb.
This is what I am.
This is what I have been; it's all I ever will be.
…
They're behind me,
They're in front of me.
All around,
Insuring my prolonged loneliness.
…
Their whispers haunt my dreams,
Rabid and wild,
Uncontrollable.
I'm frozen in the fire,
There is nowhere to go.
…
My mind is loose,
My legs are sore.
Walking two thousand miles and more.
Where am I going?
What will I find?
…
A sun, though miniscule,
Lands in this lonely path I'm on.
My hands cradle its fragility.
This sun feels too warm,
Warmer than I've ever known.
…
Soft and gentle in the wake of my weariness,
Your sunlight caresses,
Then carries my soul far away.
Far away from my path,
Where are you taking me?
…
You fly me away from the path,
How you manage I don't know.
My heavy heart should weigh you down,
But your assurance is enough.
I can only pray I won't lose this light I've just found.
…
The effect you have,
On my life,
My heart,
My soul,
Is greater than the cosmos from which you surely came.
They haven't figured what I've found.
I fear the day they do.
…
Your light is my savior,
Rescue,
Shelter,
Safety.
You ensure my own flickering light continues to bur n, however unsteady.
…
Your light has affected me in the purest way possible.
I was alone, cold,
Without warmth.
But now,
I can feel again.
