The breeze
Carried
My ancestor’s prayers
Eternal words of
Blessing
Breathed in
My first infant cry
Twined
With my DNA
We are forever one

There’s layers to my depths
And depths to my layers
Arrangements of silence, sounds, letters, words
Building, stacking, mounting
One pause, one syllable, one moment at a time
Spinning out from
My soul’s innermost core
Bursting into life
The moment they touch air
Traveling through galaxies
Beyond the universe
Beyond time

You will tell everyone
How you prayed
And how I answered
Love,
God

Look!
You see?
When you serve me
I will put you in places
You could not otherwise go
I will place you
In palaces you can’t afford

One day it became
Crystal clear
In the split
Of a split second
My heart spoke
My purpose
God’s destiny
For what I am to be

Encased
Within my beauty
A silent grain of pain
But my God
Layered
Love, upon love, upon love
Smoothing hurt into
Iridescent sheen

Des yeux qui font baisser les miens, Un rire qui se perd sur sa bouche, Voila le portrait sans retouche, De l’homme auquel j’appartiens.
Quand il me prend dans ses bras, Il me parle tous bas, Je vois la vie en rose.
Il me dit des mots d’amour, Des mots de tous les jours, Et ca me fait quelque chose.
Il est entre dans mon coeur, Une part de bonheur, Dont je connais la couse.
-Edith Piaf

My little girl dreams
Are still cherished
By my woman’s heart
One day
Very soon
I know
They will be
My reality

You had my heart
From jump
‘Cause that’s what it did
When we met
It went jump
Love at first sight
Always sounded
Like a fairyfable
Then you arrived
I learned
It wasn’t make-believe
You were real

Upside down
Yet right side up
Going left
Heading right
Back
One way
Is the only way
