My Heart

My Heart

Sadness and gratitude

Occupying the same space

In this hopeful attitude

I can see His face

Is there more inside my heart

As I turn this corner?

I can feel His solace

As I learn to mourn

Letting go of superiority and

Confusion

Thinking I’m an authority

Keeps me in illusion

I don’t know what he is made of

Analyzing keeps me stuck

Wandering in a fear locked maze

Life becomes a bitter haze

Leaving judgement to the courts

And the ones who see their ilk

Frees me from the pain of disdain

Life can be a skein of silk

With which Higher powers than I

Weave a tapestry sublime

I can rest in peace and hope

Lessons learned while others cope

Trusting in His perfect time
