Remembering the sweetness of your love
is a challenge
during a life of pain
and of distractions and doubt.
Please let me feel your presence
and have the courage to let go of all else.
The inner call is great
but not enough yet to clear the obstacles
or the tears
or the deep heartaches
first of wanting you more
then of not wanting you enough.
