Like a sliver that eventually
finds its way back to the surface
after being buried deep;
waves of time wash over
the darkness of grief
and fragments of healing
somehow find themselves
in the deepest of wounds.
Bewilderment mourned
by unrequited answers
and rivers of tears.
In the cold hardness of death
the arms of my heavenly Father
wrapped this shattered heart
with a foreign compassion
celebrating relational being
celebrating relational being
of new and intimate love
transforming reforming
this once black and white life
into water colored winged dreams
this once black and white life
into water colored winged dreams
