Sometimes
Love is not for us to have
Only to view from a distant star
Sometimes
Understanding is not for us to have
Only in an abstract way of knowing
Sometimes
Seeing is not done with our eyes
Only through the feelings of the heart
Sometimes
A song ceases to be musical
Only to become lyrical words that rhyme
Sometimes
Moving past the barriers of old pain
Only happens, through new pain
Sometimes
Loving another can be fulfilling
Only if, we love ourselves
Sometimes
Living life alone, but not lonely
Only makes us strong in who we are
Sometimes
All it takes... is to be still and listen
Only to be stronger in GOD.
Sometimes.................
