I know you see me...

When You see the glimpses of wonder in my eyes

When Life opens a door to a delightful surprise

I know you see me when you hear my voice wail

To the melody and rhythm of a painful tale

I know you hear me when I stumble for the right words

Or when I attempt to create humor in the moment absurd

AND

You know I see you ...

When your pain is just under your skin

And anxiety is high and your patience wears thin

So...

How, my Beloved, do we approach the mystery?

Of which hills we will have to climb

Of what storms we will have to weather

Of which blessings will come to shower us

The answer is ....

Minute by minute

Hour by hour

Day by day

Week by week

Year by year

Until the final moment

The final breath

With you, I walk in Life and Death
