Panic
This is a disease that harbours great darkness
For the ones who find themselves locked there
If they can see nothing
Beyond the shadow of it
Reaching out
Doesn’t even enter the consciousness
At those times
Movement at all
Can be a task bordering on hysteria
Why would we ask that of anyone?
In these moments
Looking inward is the key
Reach into your own heart for self-love
Reach in
Because it’s there you’ll find
The love of God
The angels
The Universe
And all of eternity
Nestled at the core
There is room enough for all that
Inside your own heart
Without that
We might crumble
In those moments
I can’t imagine a loving God
Who would abandon a child
And yet,
Isn’t that how it appears
In these moments?
Reaching out for help
Is the impossible task
For someone
Who can’t breathe…
What happens then?
What happens
When fear reaches such a height
That a spirit can be
Swallowed whole
And left to fend for themselves?
That kind of darkness
Surely,
Is no blessing in disguise
Hold out your hand to Love
Not physically
Not literally
But in your heart
Open your heart
To the possibility of Love
Then close your eyes
And wash yourself in Light
“What if I forget” you say?
“What if…?”
Then let go
Of all the fighting
Let it go and know
That all the love in the Universe
That lives inside your heart
(Without fail)
Is there specifically and solely
To hold you close
And walk with you
Until the moment passes
And you can breathe again
It’s not a matter of having to remember anything
In that moment
Love has your back!
Let that be your truth
Amen to your courageous heart!
