I wish I could




 The cloud is soft and the spirit light

yet the tears fall as rain on this plane,

stifling my breath,

the pain and suffering a blow to my stomach,

I double over from the force,

and I wish I could extend my arms,

wrap them around every pain, every tear, every loss,

hold you ‘til the tears run dry and the pain subsides,

hold you until you can lift your head and gaze at the dawn,

hold you until your being is filled with the light of your wakened spirit,

then gently let you go as you jump free from the restraints of darkness,

beings so light you float above the ground on legs as young as a gazelle,

eyes as bright as a child’s and a heart open and filled with love.
