clarity

the beginning and the end
birth and death
both
give
clarity

it's the in between
the birth and death
where we search for clear
vision
thinking
feeling

we long for clarity and yet
when things become clear
it can be overwhelming

give me clarity
we pray
show me the way

and how many times do we
slump away saying
that's not the way i want to go
give me clarity

two times
this past year
clarity has illuminated my heart and mind
shining the exact path i should take.

clarity.
it has the power to heal.
