Hush

In my sleeping hours I dream of darkness and faith
Running nakedly but fearlessly through His garden,
My legs unblemished by the thorns of beautiful white roses---
Invisible is the blood that drips slowly to the ground
Leaving a trail of sorrow, sins and unforgiveness;
But other things besides thoughts, thirst for freedom
Hungrily licking the stains of reality from the ground,
Squeezing through the splinter of light in the soul’s eye
Causing consciousness to blink and awaken to silence,
Body paralyzed by the cool air of the morning,
Imagination forming images and voices from fear…
Hush, are the whispers shared between brothers
Hush, are the screams that explode from memories then into tears
Hush, are the lips of God that brush against my wet cheeks
Empowering my heart and soul with strength
To once again vanquish those internal demons
That haunt me in my waking hours.

Marcel
