Because I don’t know how to pray,
I do what I know to do,
which is to sit very quietly
and let myself feel. To hold you
without holding you.
To imagine your fear
and breathe into it.
To feel my own fear
and walk the edges of its cliffs.
To lean on hope with its flimsy
net and feel how little it takes
to catch us, to save us.
Beautiful
Thank you. So much love to send out into the world, so many ways we need to help each other.

thank you for doing just that xx
This is beautifully woven with truth. The finding of the true you and using the both of you to be the sword needed to face our days. Being whole and aware makes the sight worth some glare :). Thank you
Thank you for this thoughtful comment and for reading the poem,

“Like” is a weak word for how I see this poem. So simple, so lean, so rich in feeling and truth. Thank you.

thank you for the thoughtfulness and support! I don’t mean to sound ungrateful, but I don’t feel as if I have enough time to do this award justice and pass it on appropriately … but thank you for thinking of me!
