you dressed my wounds
and told me then
you would always love our times together
but that was never
what it seemed
as you were always
leaving.
And returning
but not really here.
You were bleeding
all over the place
and never facing
what was true,
never being the real you.
Sometimes you still
call in
to see
what is going on with me.
Here today is my plea.
Hear me.
Stay a while
and listen to my heart beat
come in closer and really meet
Trust
Honesty
Tolerance
Gentleness
What Joy that would be
Defenselessness for me to see,
Generosity to give away
all you value here
and Patience now and for all time,
Faithfulness and an Open-mind.
If every word was ever heard
Love would sing and light would bring
a truly wondrous way to be
living with Simplicity.
This came to me on June 4, 2019.
