Like an angel I soared higher and higher
Then thought rejection dejection and death eternally
Made me fold my wings & fly downwards.
I had earned love passionately
but garments of frustration gather around me,
I became a shell, vowed never to open.
In my withdrawal, I saw the pearl
And felt the presence of God's love,
Stoically in concerns pain feeling secure.
In my world of loneliness
I wrote and wrote our my mind,
My sole earthly succour.
Only to fade slowly away
Into the eternal river that stops for none
But takes away all the dead flowers & the red roses.
