On Her Knees
As waves collide with sand
She falls down on her knees
One with nature
In conversation with God
Sand slipping through fingers
Grains of sand like falling rain
Swept away by gale forced wind
Water splashes upon rocky shores
Like the sounds of thunder
From heavens above
Lighting strike one more time
In this bleak hour of midnight
Her face the color of gray
Moon just slip away to hide away
Behind heavy clouds
That sails across horizons end
In gale forced wind upon the sand
Silent expression withholds her
As she turn her face towards heavens above
She flips her hair back away from her
Then slowly as the moon comes out
Silver lines now shiny upon her cheeks
As silent tears runs freely
Like rolling waves upon the sand
One with nature
But in conflict with her heart!!

Much love,

You open your heart wide in this one for all to see. You paint a sombering picture, sissy, of those seasons of the dark soul we all, ocasionally, navigate.
Your muse is powerful these days, and it reflects in what you are writing. A beautiful, deep, heartfelt poem.
Stand Strong ...
