I write "I Wonder" as I think of the precognitive dreams I had about severe floods...etc., and how sharing them, in my own publications and websites since early 2005, discomforted literally every person I know. . .and also as I think about how sharing my painful life story and asking for help sent people running away from me.

I eraced my story from all postings and accepting people's inability to deal with such depths of pain. (God is my only friend.) I also wiped out my “forewarnings”, because it was foolish of me to assume people would want me to share them. I was wrong. But I still See more than most would want to believe and my weary heart sometimes cries for all of us, because there is nothing I can do to stop what we'll go through. . .


I Wonder

by The Poetess (SRP)

 

I wonder if our hearts

Can face floods of pain
Then rise into the dawn

From ashes turned to rain.

I wonder if humanity

Can care to face and feel

The hidden places –
The ones we need to heal.

 

I wonder.

Patrick, you owe nothing. I understand that it was all just too much for people. There are some battles we must fight alone.

I think I owe you
And shame on me
I read part of your story
You asked if it scared me off
I said no...time constraints
I apologize.

Please repost.

I have endured wars and floods all my life.
I believe that our own suffering teaches us to
be sensitive to the suffering of others.
