Fortress

Turn
then

twist

open slowly

and peel

layer after layer

to reveal

the hidden places

tightly

woven

over years

of pain

and loss,

until

fear

has built

a fortress

around

your

heart.

Forgiveness

I wake
to feel the yearnings
of my soul
so long sleeping
far beneath
the stone
that is my heart.
And hear the echo
of hope
once lost
fade into the
deep valley
of grief
from which
I rise.

Peace be with you.

Shelter


My Strength
Is
Gone.
Against the Wind
I
Fought.
And only
Now
Do
I
See,
How strong
You
Were for
Me.

If I Could

If I could
paint
your life
anew
I would
paint your sky
forever
blue
and fill your days
with golden
light
and ever
endless
star-filled
nights
