broken vessels, shards of light

TikvaWolf.com

I come from a long line of people who have held too much death

for one person in one lifetime.

And they figured out how to be the vessel for that grief without cracking...

Or maybe they didn't.

Perhaps I am the descendent of many broken shards trying to put themselves back together.

May the source of strength that guided them help me find the courage to keep trying 

to transform this darkness into light.

"We laughed, and as you walked away I called to your back at the door: “Goodnight, Brother.”

“What?” you said, over your shoulder; and then: “Oh. Right. Goodnight, Brother.”

In the morning the cardiologist said it was not my heart, only fatigue, and a week later I knew that you and I had received a gift. For one of us will answer a telephone then travel to a funeral; or perhaps the theft of a dead friend, and a night drive into the country. But we’ve had our deathbed farewell, and now I know that it doesn’t matter which friend is on his feet. The goodbye is the same.”

Rompí lo que quedaba de mi con toda furia, y arañe mis miedos hasta quedar sin uñas, le grite a mi pasado hasta que mi dolor ensordeció. Y allí en la torrencial lluvia de mis desdichas había alguien que miraba desde mi ventana todo mi desastre, y le sonrió, -¿Que opinas se reanudamos esta pieza de vals?, y con solo su mirada, hizo que mi alma cansada escampara, y desde ese entonces fui feliz, y nada me asustaba, me enseño que este mundo es romántico, que hay más valentía en aquellas miradas tristes, que se posan en los acantilados. También me enseño a ahuyentar a las hienas, que se alimentaban de las zozobras de mis pasos, aunque estuviese hasta reventar de ansiedad,me enseño a danzar bajo el caos de los problemas. -Jamas de los jamases me iré de ti. -¿Nos conocemos de antes? -¿Que piensas tu?,descuida, no es molestia, -Soy Jesús, ha sido un placer verte de nuevo ¿Bailamos?-y su sonrisa hizo que el cielo explotara y se pintara de colores,y ya era de mañana y ya eso no importaba, verle a los ojos, era una calma, era toda una gracia sublime.

Nightmares of them nights I had to stay awake Felt so out of place I felt so far from grace I remember all the tears I put on Momma's face I remember Papa say just finish up the race I'm a father now so when I look back All the times that he was there when I look back Footprints in the sand played out what it looks like Laid it all down for a wretch and the crook life It's amazing, so amazing all the things I went through And the only reason I made this 'cause my parent's prayers 'cause you know that my layers deeper than I would let on And I knew that I could make it had to push and press on I stand tall like a beacon of light For the kids that's lost help them come home tonight I shine bright so the world can see, world can see How the Lord shed his blood for me
