Solace

“Just to love a person because she is who she is, or he is who he is, and not for any other reason, is genuine support.” Thomas Merton


Tears,

dark fears
like wind-
lashed leaves,
like faithful doves
who softly grieve ,

you cry,

and though I don’t
understand
why life fills you
with such fright,

please believe
that I’ll always be there
to help you get
through your darkest
night.
