It’s back
I’m shaking like a leaf
More trauma
It’s a normal natural response
So I’m told
Under these circumstances
I see very clearly
We have different strengths
But strengths we do have in abundance
Meeting in the middle
The two of us working together
Dialogue & adult discussion
Trauma is everywhere
Leaching into every cell
All of us – imploding stars
*
She is such an Angel
Beautiful in all her innocent glory
Loving & gentle
I rock her in my arms
I pat her back in rhythm
She relaxes, falling asleep
She is loved by all of us
To our core, that weeps
In our hearts, that bleed
I pray, pleading for guidance
My faith is in your hands
I am your servant
Love is love
There is no in-between
Just understanding & surrender
