A road opened up
In the woods
Deep inside the wilderness spaces of this heart
That led to you
It revealed itself
When I let myself feel my loneliness and deep longing
Despite all fear
And answer its plea
By reaching out
You may not fully understand me
But you let me be
Who I am
We were alone in this wood so long
You and I
Separated by mist and fog
Inside I felt the silent cry of your heart
That no one else but one other could feel
This journey we are living out is cellular and emotional
As sisters we share a lonely legacy
I cried today
And you held my hand
I felt more walls coming down
I was always so frightened of you
But now I dont struggle as hard
With being the one
Who expresses feeling
For in the lonely wood
Where we connected
I suddenly heard a choir of angels sing
I am sure it was not just imagining
The heavens rejoiced
When you reached across that great divide
To hold my hand
And the empty space in both of us was filled
With a recognition
Deep pain
And unfathomable love
Unspoken
Emerging From The Dark Night
