Truly Awakened
Written In Response To:
V.J.’s Weekly Challenge #58: Just When I Thought… – Life seldom unfolds in straight lines. It’s not necessary to repeat the prompt phrase, but this week let’s think about the times when life has turned an abrupt corner, or caught us off guard.
Light Motiffs II Thursday Inspiration 14 -This week’s theme is fragile and the picture is below.
Just when I thought this heart
could not become any more fragile
the Hand that holds it breaks
this heart to shatter into depths
of a Love that I never knew
could be so rooted to contain…
Loving and forgiving beyond
heights, lengths, and widths
I never desired to go beyond…
just when I thought is when
I became truly awakened.
