In Spite Of

I dedicate this to all humanity....



In spite of all our faults
there are beautiful people inside us
trying to break through.

In spite of all our shortcomings
our triumph is waiting to shine
upon all,
that is good and right and true .

In spite of all our fears
there is a comfort longing to hold us
the caring of another
whose heart is also worn and blue.

In spite of all our loathing
there is a love thats waiting
in silence,
and longing for me and you.

I knew I gravitated to YOU for a good reason!
Your heart speaks words of wisdom and healing!
A similiar feel in my words I sense right here!

But are we deserving?
Love the line "whose heart is also worn and blue."
Lovely poem or hope.

The longing within your poem here is exactly how I feel too. We all have a guilt that needs purging so we can get on with living.It puts up a wall for any love to come through when we don't keep up the maintanance it needs. In spite of all our emotions, we do need to get past the negative ones. I love your thought process.

Love,
Susan
