This Mystery
I scribbled it quick
’cause her words touched me so
& in my Red Book, they were placed, to treasure for always.
& it’s so incredibly enlightening, to completely understand,
this fragile, magnificent gift called, Life,
which invariably ends, one day, for each and every one of us.
I oftentimes assume, I’m just an odd one, experiencing a quiet, comfortable, spiritual elation, for those who leave
but realizing, all too well,
the heartache, the void, the endless tears, that encompass, we who stay.
But it’s in the songs
the shared journeys
Ashley Judd: Grief, Love and Naomi
the beauty
the trust
where this mystery, somehow, someway, someday makes sense.
& delighted in this glorious knowledge,
I am too.
