Always

-Always-

When you find yourself in that dark place,
and the breath leaves you for the light,
and you wonder where you might
catch a breeze again,
a silent ease, to lend a helping hand,
a gust, to take you to some other land,
look no further than a simple thought away,
for I am there, with light and air,
and in that moment of consummate loving care,
you will know, you are not alone.
Breathe my love,
For I am with you, always,
your hand in my own,
souls forever lifting one other,
until this breath that we share,
picks you up, and as light as air
sweeps you to the light,
a feathers touch,
true and bright,
always to know,
it is together, that we grow.

Sometimes

Sometimes

Sometimes,
when you have found what you are looking for,
and lost it again,
serendipity plays its card,
and you find what you never expected,
in a place you have never been.
Sometimes,
you have to stop looking,
in order to be found.
Sometimes.
