I sense the emptiness you feel
the pain that you don’t talk about
impending loss you won’t reveal.
I feel these on another plane
where such thoughts are spoken freely.
Would that I could lift your heart
raze the darkness that you carry,
yet I don’t know where to start.
Would that you might trust a friend
who wonders at this path you travel
and listens as your dreams unravel
yet doesn’t know where to begin.
On this map we’re left to follow
not every road comes to an end
sometimes we can’t see ‘round the curve
to where the path starts up again.
Many have gone on ahead
and for a while some stay behind—
and through the seeds your words have sown
just know that you are not alone.

For a friend whom I see struggling. Wishing you light and love on this road you travel.
This is lovely Ginny!
