far beyond yourself…

jubilation

drink from this, my well of jubilation
seep into the crevice where stories blossom
triumphant
glorious
fearless

lead me to the water’s edge
see me as a vision
see me as i am
a woman
a man
a heart beating strong
a massive jumble of a puzzle
lost and found

drink from this, my well of silent suffering
seep into the crevice where laments thrive
searing
formidable
cleansing

my hand cups the truth
covers my mouth
and still you sing to me from tomorrow
i will meet you there
i will not falter
nor hide
there is no shame
in who or what has been

i will meet you
there
across a chasm i cannot fathom
i will meet you there
there
i will be
