stitches heal bones mend long the absence pain will defend with an ocean in common even waves part kiss the shore break the heart mind and soul storm complex rage and wane memory reflects desires to explore the depth of despair back from the brink up for air
bottom of the ninth
who's keeping score
another sunny day
on a submarine with a screen door
troubling questions remain
cut off at the knees
what if the cure
is worse than the disease
hard time
this moment and distance
we wait and pray
fragile resistance
hearts torn
nightly news
uncertain future
path to choose
somehow I know
it will never be the same
now that the enemy
has a name
in the moment
the sky cleared
a compression
of memories seared
saying goodbye
to a life too young to die
dearest friend
courageous and true
there can never be
another you
here in the wind and rain
all wet again
feeling the press of today
remembering a time
when you were mine
and tomorrow was so far away
how we became so different
yet still remained the same
tackling a perfect moment
fumbling for a name
and so words fail
with uncanny skill
this is complicated
call it what you will
bless this moment
within Grace resides
a breath of time
the World decides
God, plain and simple
precious and rare
reset of priorities
fills the air
Jesus came
choice for the living
He is risen
a day for thanks giving
