Your quietude Fills the air But there’s a mindful Restlessness that walks Beside me Frail, thin thoughts That won’t let go And their trailings poison everything And I swear I will never huddle At your feet Too lost and too scarred to belong Too tired and alone to go on But then the dreams behind your eyes Unfold and make you shine And though my heart’s so weary Of stumbling on, it always blinds me That witches’ brew of fortitude And kindness The faint, tranquil glow That shimmers where you go Oh, I know It makеs no sense But evеry time it brings that feeling Back again The light and the love and the hope The ease of it all as it grows The darkness of my life Dissolving in a smile
