“Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.”
― Leonard Cohen
charting aspects
of what it means
to be alive,
visiting the sites
where I barely
survived… praying my heart
will translate
the pain,
broken open
and shattered again…
my soul
laid bare
in tattered praise,
I’m grateful for the love that stayed…
