                 “Warmth of the Fire”


The wonder of happiness is thought provoking to say the least
To be happy with myself is harder than some can really imagine
As life moves forward and the simple things in life seem to change daily
I smile knowing tomorrow is a new day with brighter smiles and softer hearts

Building a future of stone, sticks, soil, and fire to keep my thoughts warm
So many nights in the Fall can bring coldness and the feeling of being alone
Thoughts escaping into words to be heard out loud meant to stay silent
What is making sense is only the night when all words stop and the mind rests

Silently I try to form words into sentences that allow myself to understand
So confused with the fact that my hands built the pit to be enjoyed with another
Frustrated by the emptiness beside me where many have been invited
Consoled by my own thoughts as I comfort my empty heart with warm flames

Distraction of a great week with so many wonderful things become reality
Knowing one day I will no longer be alone wishing to be held by someone who loves me
For as the days pass and my life moves forward I will sit here wrapped in the arms of God
With the warmth of the fire I no longer need you to make me whole for I am already whole without you
