Living on empty, (what I was doing)
Lives lived Listening intently,
Giving back, for all I’ve been given
Sharing (now), My new found freedom
Hearing the answer, In the singing
Allow the pain, The pain of grieving.
Love in the sharing; Listening to another
(It’s in the sharing) The listening of another
Deep dark secrets (has been quite the feat)
Delving in the darkness, Allow the retreat
Resting comfortably, In my new way of life
What is missing? There is no more strife
A long, held dream, Of a better world
Softer gentler, But oh so bold
Heartache gone No more clenched teeth
Listening inside Allowed to breathe
The right to say I want more
Than living with loss As I did before
Enjoy the moment This day will pass
Let out the pain A blast from the past.
Comfort me gently Quietly singing
Needing the answers From inside of me
Not only singing But quietly waiting
For what the answer Is supposed to be
Getting ready For the moment
When all is As it should be
Dearly beloved Sorting out
Just Who and What Is family.
