I've worn this bandage
for so long.
It seems I forget
it's there sometimes
until I am bumped
and I bleed.

I feel like
crying tonight
just to let go.
Been holding on
for too long now.

God speaks to me
In the pitter patter
Of the rain.
It will be all right
My child
Tomorrow the sun
Will shine again.

My child

Bright and warm
rays floating
through the air.
Feeling your presence.
Knowing you're there.
I touch you.

using you
as a crutch. . . .
