Poem

time heals or so they say
gives the illusion of comforting

barely ~ it merely glosses over
at best of times dulls our suffering

we learn to live with pain
grin and bear the heartache

we befriend shadows in the dark
through the night that keep us awake

we manage to calm the beast
though it feeds on our broken heart

we manage somehow to coexist
so it doesn’t fully tear us apart

we understand that time can be our ally
if we learn to cope as best we can

we remember to not give up
so must get back on the caravan

we tolerate inevitable fluctuations
bravely ride the waves of emotion

we welcome nature’s cycles
connect with land and ocean

we embrace our role
within this universe sublime

as we invite peace within
and treasure the miracle of time
