Too Much Is Enough
Stop
Too much
Is enough
Grief seeping through my body
Rendering me to surrender
To a time and place
Where my world came crashing down
Where I’m swimming against the tide
Fighting the darkness
Surrounded in tears
As I search in vain
Searching for signs —
A dime
A butterfly
A Blue Jay
A Cardinal
Or a glorious rainbow
Reminding me that you are still by my side
Not tangible
Just peace
Your aura follows me like a shadow
Claiming your spot
My angel by my side
Guiding me
Following in my footsteps
Lifting me —
Where darkness
Becomes light
