If I could touch the heavens
feel the reassurance of other
I know I would soar, untethered
to this bank of rusty dreams
and eroded faith…

This piece reminds me that we may need the push from others, but ultimately, we are alone and must dig deep to keep going.

Today’s world does bite into our faith in humanity. It’s our perception that helps us out. I got one message from this poem: kindness toward each other. Thanks VJ.

You’re welcome, VJ. It certainly is. I made the mistake of listening to the local news last night, and it was one shooting after another.
