The Ceasing Of Lidia Sirello




She touched each one but soon they cleared like smoke
little infant rogues, always ready for the heady toke   

She prayed to the Gods above but all she got was pain 
drenched to the bone by torrents that gave way to rain 

So in the end she chose the middle way of no return 
Icarus moments in the sun that didn't crash or burn

Resting in God's love she got to see the other side,   
feeling vibrant and blissful like the slow ebbing tide.

This is so touching and heartfelt.. Our souls can feel so much exhausted by all the bloodstorms they have to go through ~ despite all, that flame of faith keeps burning but it may too, flicker and fade at some point... I felt the ache in your words so deeply. The divine light is our ultimate guardian who will finally lead us to hope and home, at the end of the day. Loved reading this, my best wishes to you ~
