Another year passed
Three years on
One more candle lit
Life has kept all of us moving
Pushing us forward and onwards
At times against the grain
In my attempt for redemption
I learn about forgiveness
And how to extend it to myself
In my search for vindication
I learn that Rage
Burns on both ends
In my promise to start over
I learn that beginnings
Exist in every moment
In my strife to trust again
I found faith in the spinning
World of uncertainty
In my vow to not abandon myself
I found strength
In my solitude
Sometimes I still get sad
And lonely and angry
Sometimes I feel my heart
So broken it will never be whole
Sometimes the earth cracks open
The shadows of the depths cold and dark
I light another candle
Offer another prayer
I look for the Moon
Or a star
I find your whisperings
In every glimmer
To bear witness
As I lay
Haven and harbour
In your shelter
