Hurricane

Suddenly the Hurricane arrived
It hit me with it's sand blinding me
It pushed me from one side to another
I found myself in complete darkness ...
and so I stood there not knowing what to do ..
waiting for it to pass over me
and go away ....

Then within that dark moment
of unanswered questions
a faint light appeared in the distance
your words of friendship
solidarity, support ..

Telling me with infinite tenderness
all will pass
everything would be fine
to remember who I was

That I was not alone
it was not my fault
this things happens
and to have faith
in a future full of light
joy and love

That I deserved better
that I had many who cared for me
that they have seen the hurricane approaching
when I was looking at the stars
unsuspectingly

So thanks,
thanks for being my stick
when I could not stand on my own
Thanks for encouraging me with your love
and your wise words ....
