10/12/21

at the edge of new



I was breathing the air in

that knew no lack

it frightened and soothed me 

at the same time


for all my life 

I had fought to gain

what I thought was

scarce and running out


in that moment

my heart became

nurtured and healed

from deep within


and all that 

calm

gave a name for my

fear


all these years

I had believed

I wasn’t safe

to know no lack


so that was

the orphan me

and here stands

the one forever loved
