Into the Myst of It All

They reign supreme,
those words I often wish to hear
and even though they don't float through the air
to electrify my ears, I let my thoughts pretend
to feel their breeze.

And when it touches me,
the charge I get gratifies the empty
waiting for your hold, at times startling me
with its power, embracing me in the warmth
of a yesterday, too soon forgotten.

Sometimes I feel helpless,
and I allow myself to call upon you
to give me strength to manage this life,
to control my emotions, to allow the current
to drift me beyond the words,
into the myst of it all.

With that comes the serenity
of knowing, the ability to lull myself
into a calmness, and in that stillness
I remember that there are no conditons needed,
(that we are who we are) and I am poised
to ease into...a life of balance.

M

Oh, I like that! Nicely said, Maureen. We all need a little reinforcement to make the waiting times a little more bearable....hang in there

I am a Libra and need my balance (or so I'm told).

This is quite an awesome write M. You do well at sharing emotion.
