I feel like I've
been lacking in creative inspiration
My mind and heart
avoiding one another
My pen and fingers
silenced by fear
Fear of what my
heart and mind might say
Were they to meet
Right now I am
drifting on a raft of separation
Holding my breath
and trying not to make too many ripples
In the lives of
others or myself
Not asking for
anything, but wishing I could
Yearning to matter
I miss the comfort
and sense of love that come
From living with a
family
People to care for,
to protect and cherish
A constant and continuous union of love and joy
Where all feel
needed
Where the past and
present meet is a rich sum
Of beauty and faith,
light and joy
Where loss turns to
growth and we continue to progress
Moving forward along
a path
Known to all and yet
none
Crisis and victory
often shape my existence
As I walk a path
unknown
Sometimes lonely and
disappointed
Trying to be
detached and to trust that if I put my faith in God
All will become
clear eventually
Everyday I pray for
Divine assistance
To let go of my
sorrows and limitations
And I take comfort
in the fact that as I struggle and learn
I draw closer to Him
And mature into the
person He created me to be
