In my mind I see your loving eyes gazing on me
The way they did when I was young
I feel your love surrounding me now
Even though you are gone
I reach out to you through my pain and fear
I feel my sadness at the loss of you in my heart
And I hear your voice in the silence
As I realise how fear and wariness is blocking connection now
You were the force of danger
That shattered my world too
When things split apart
And life became so frightening to me
Those long years you were gone
Only to return to be damaged
Told me it was not safe to live
So now if I finally and fully
Feel the pain of this in my heart
Is this not a time of awakening?
