Over the years I have learnt
To be soft and tender in
my speech If I have to reach
The heart and soul
of someone I love;
Over the days I have tried
To be patient and brave
To bear harsh realities and save
my strength to wait at length
To let silent tears soothe my fears
Of The Grave and Lonely years,
Over the moments I have
stepped back, to give space
To close my eyes and feel the
serene face and tender touch
of the Spirit I so dearly love.
Over my life I have drifted,
along, with the flow
I came to know
I have to go and be slow
To move step by step
shed tears drop by drop,
Over my heart I found,
nothing was my own
It All had to be gifted,
to known and unknown
Over my Heart I saw,
as inside I bled
Outside All was black
as the invisible was red,
love's return, hard to find,
Values virtues vanished,
none- was really kind
the more you cared
the more you lost
No one would hear
til it was a shout-
And with all your sincere Love
Your love was always in doubt.

Sometimes it does take a while for us to understand things, may even take us to understand things in a way we wish we did not.
To be a kind and loving spirit - you also risk to be abused and trampled on. There's always a limit when it doesn't work any longer.
A beautiful piece.
