Puffy faced she looked at me The face she had pulled for many a year She faced the future through half slit eye which couldn’t see the truth Ouch it hurt it all made so little sense What was next she dreaded to think After everything she didn’t know what life had in store The pain just continued and it never seemed to end She had had enough and didn’t know where she should turn The whole cycle was continuing and she didn’t know how to make it stop It was getting beyond a joke the longing for something stronger More powerful a connection she knew her place Was the spiritual dwelling and yet to get there was like a second birth And getting there was the pain in the bones which left the long standing ache She wasn’t sure where to turn so unsteady the roots on which she was sown The ground shook with uncertainty of an infinite truth and the blessings were Longed to be found The space that kept her apart from him Seemed to never end
