Thoughtless in thought of nothing
I see thee watching
blind and obscure hole it was
parting between two worlds
or there are many
I wonder…my vision would ever encompass
I wish I could see the difference
A numbness in heart
A deafness of soul
A cry that may pierce heaven
Let’s moan to ourselves
Death is amongst us
All doors closed
Those already escaped missed raven
who foretold his becoming was essential
to loose hold on hatred, envy and revenge
Lessen the burden of Earth O God
heavy like my heart
choked like my breath
it needs to lighten, freshen
All my prayers were heard
I saw…a window did open!
