making it before the midnight hour… morning got away from me with company and events. And… showing up here is important and necessary for me.. This poem is composed by Samantha and me.
He saw me at the door
He knew I couldn’t take anymore
So I turned my back and looked north
It was the closest to the safest shore
The pebbles hurt my feet.
I ran and ran to my heart’s steady beat
Along the river’s edge a face of light
Called me from my panicked heat
I felt a peace with-in that stemmed the tide
That I knew from it I could not hide
What was is gone, it is no more
Within the face of light I now abide
No door can shut out my Light
No need have I to take fear to flight
Peace at last has found me still
At river’s edge there is no plight
