Count my blessings
Wish on a shooting star
I am always close to you
Somewhere deep inside my heart
Its only now that the anger fades
At all the mistakes
That I can remember how
You were there
Right beside me to hold my hand
As they took my shattered body
From the car’s torn remains
Over all of these years I only felt
How it was for me
So angry and frustrated I could not walk free
Confined and defined inside my soul
By that entrapment
But now I realise how you suffered too
For all the ways you failed
And could never quite know what to do
To make things right
When I was all alone and falling
Deeper and deeper into emptiness
But this morning upon waking
I felt the truth
As I experienced every single thing
In acute relief
Again
And felt how it impacted upon you
And so it was I had to dig
So deep inside to find the love
And forgiveness
My soul needed all along
And for me that was
The most powerful of gifts
The precious release :
Today’s blessing
