SHOWING UP
Her eyes were hopeless, lost Drawn into a memory of long agoA prison of abandonmentLonelinessWas anyone going to show up for her?Would she ever be acknowledged?Would she ever feel loved, cherished, known? It’s life-altering when we are known, when we connect with others deeply in being known. It’s life to a lonely soul and water…

FACES
Faces We don’t really see Or look hard enough To notice someone Faces Lovely, aged, soft, brittle We don’t really see We fear truly looking And we fear being seen Faces Tell a story Faces Beautiful, mysterious Faces Harsh and weathered Carry so much history The story of a life Lived Squandered Endured Survived Enjoyed…

Soft eyes that now give way To a thousand apologies Past demons Chased away by mercy and forgiveness Peace, the voice that beckons Love the song that sings to the broken Humble voice now whispers Where once rage lived there Quiet. Resolved. Living free. Living loved. Living.

Let Love……
