MY SALVATION
I remember the day you appeared to me:
beaming smile and twinkling eyes.
loving spirit
warming the room filling it with charm.
I was dark and vacant
in the days before you:
bitter, confused and afraid.
Smoldering embers of a benevolent
soul kept alive and nurtured by your example.
Loving me so at a time when at my core
I believed that I was unlovable; lighting the way
that I might discover the joy of living.
Standing in the tides of triumphant self-realization
I have finally begun to see.
To see with new eyes the
eternal truth that is my birth.
You have been my salvation:
my direction and my obsession.
I am no longer walking alone along the shaded path
that love draws from nothing and everything that
we are.
