A heart of sorrow
Which cannot be repaired
Lost in life’s silent ache
Burns holes in my memory.
———–
Faded recollections
Warm waves come in a flood
A future burnt in ruins
Caressing a sweet tomorrow.
————
Long time holding on
Velvet ribbons cradle my soul
A silver cross hides despair
Silently healing a breaking heart.
————
Truth that grasps sadness
Surely calms a troubled brow
Fluent words softly spoken
Quietly brings help and comfort.
————
Peace poured out in a flood
Love through eternal splendor
Joy sublime in endless giving
A deluge of drowning grace.

Sometimes clear words are the only way out..I love the images in these lines..the velvet ribbons and silver cross..so vivid..Jae
What a lifetime of emotions and salve are illustrated here bringing comfort wherever the pain.
Life’s more than a heart can hold, more than it can survive.
Thank you for your kind comments. Alan
