"Journey to a wall of a missing soul"

To the ends of the earth
where dreams are conjured
where friendship and love were born
through the planes where a new unfamiliar life began
and death had no stay.
There unearthed the mistery of an abandoned gift,
of a strength of a flower, and of the making of an opus.

Yet here I am.
And
here now I witness
here now I discover
here now I reveal
devastated and unsure
that this journey I knitted for a thousand beginnings
to live and behold the strength and beauty of life
has deserted me. Deserted the beliefs I crafted out of love.
devastated and unsure
Still,
I remain thankful and uninterrupted.
For my dreams are not fractured.
My dreams are not bewildered.
And I will linger
as steady as a rock,
as strong as a pillar,
as gracious as a queen,
in this Journey where my life will go on unveiling.
Drawing from its existence. Speaking for itself.
