Poetry, short prose, & general musings.

The answer.

I see myself

Standing still

Swirling colors around me

Like the world has gone in fast forward

And I have stayed on pause

I slowly glance around

Turning my head left….then right…

Turmoil stirs in my mind, my stomach lurches

For I know this world carries darkness

Pain

Yet I feel in my soul

My feet will not be moved

My body will not be shaken

For you hold me firm, still

You’ve planted me on a foundation that cannot be broken.

I breathe out and close my eyes

I know you will never leave me

You are the promise, the gift.

You are the answer.
