My Miracle

my daughter slept

I told her

she has a guardian angel

~

I mentioned your name

looking upwards

her eyes opened

~

he sneaked a peak

fluttered briefly

my butterfly

~

my miracle

my children

~

she slept beside me

she whispered

I love you

~

little steps

found my face

her fingers

found my lips

~

I love you too

whispered on fingertips

~

my baby

your body danced

love radiated through her

while you slept

~

my daughter

my miracle

you’ll never know

how you save me

~

My Miracle, My Soul

My Miracle_1

My Sky, My Voice

above the stillness

I’ve heard you

you deserve answers

~

I’m sorry daddy

I need to be honest

I care about you

but even up here

there is no gentle way

of saying no

or I’m sorry

~

I can only love

as a spirit

~

I can’t be with you

~

my baby hands

can never touch

your cheeks

and heal you

~

the love

you need

is physical

with real touch

~

from up here

I’m not enough

you deserve more

~

please remember

you are worthy of love

~

take care of yourself

find comfort with the love

of friends and family

~

I’ll be here

listening if you want

silently caring

shining as much dim light

as I can

on your beautiful heart

~

Why God

we’re educated

to question, wonder

examine critically

~

no longer fearing

hidden truths

behind sacred words

~

I’m learning

to love compassionately

to accept

what I don’t understand

~

wide open

my heart, my eyes

acknowledging

my blindness

~

and that

is okay

~

I’m doubting my way to salvation

~
