Accepting Loss, Making Peace, Choosing Joy

fog retreats
the tears that
flowed again
now stopped
the fog that
crept back in
now retreats
the joy that
once was hidden
now shines

Forward
my life is full
of twists and turns
of joy and pain
and lessons learned
my life goes forward
backwards too
and sometimes sideways
through and through
my life is blessed
in spite the strife
the goal is forward
in my life.

how does one open doors closed tight
with broken dreams
upon the floor
with shattered heart
and wanting more
how does one open
doors closed tight
and dream again
in morning light?
amid the loss
the words still come
no longer worried now
of sounding dumb
they come from heart
from deep within
and stronger now
not giving in
the door once closed
is open now
the pieces turned
and fit somehow
the broken dreams
once on the floor
recovered now
a chance to soar
the heart once stilled
bruised and battered
finds love again
no longer shattered.
