Poetry

Jane recently sent me a poem that she wrote, and with her permission, I share it here...

Grief

The waves of emotion
come crashing over me
pulling me under
I can hardly breathe
Barely holding my head above water
I gasp for air
And then another one comes
dousing me once more
Will I survive this?
Does anyone see me sinking?
I need a life line
Something to hang on to
Someone to drag me to shore
But my cries for help
are muffled and silenced
by the busyness of life
I must ride out the storm alone
Clinging to the Invisible Anchor
Pleading with Him
to save my soul
and heal my broken heart
