i’ll respond
when things are clearer
how i long
to feel Him nearer
tonight, i was supposed
to be with you
instead, alone,
i had to be
my brain escaping
from reality
and pushing, striving
to be uniting
with Him
in Him only
can i perceive
and gain back
my sanity
for the madness of
this world
washes in
caves in
envelops me
(Anne Jackson, 1999)

Awesomeness as usual!!
This is an amazing poem. Seriously. Amazing.
It’s astounding how perfect the timing of this is – how perfectly this describes my week (or year). Thank you!!
