AWAKEN IN SPIRIT

Awaken in spirit

for even with this hell so fast upon you

your inner focus must be the ultimate force

(not your fear)

the world is full of strange shadowy tomorrows

that will matter little to you

other than on those particular days they appear

they come, they go

they scar, they rearrange

your views

as well as others' views of you

and all other problematic things

its scary inhabiting a body that is suddenly

plagued with uncertain sickness

but its faith, focus and love that keep the

spirit afloat

satisfied by its own self witness

when in despair

often recall these words to yourself

I am fine

my soul is undisturbed wine

this body a mere glass

often cracked, yes

imperfect always

but never shattered

for from these ashes now that are my pain

I will rise

better for simply having been

the MYSELF in every possible moment that

the Lord has given to me

as GOD wants me to be

and thus just so

So I Am.........

live always with the peace

that forever and on dwells within you

I hope you get well soon

and as always

I LOVE YOU...............
