My Promise to You

Plant the seeds of self love and care

I will help you water them with my own love for you

They will grow into a wonderful garden

And when you cultivate the fruits of your labor then you will See

You will truly See

That you are loved

In past, present, and future, all the same

You will truly See

That you rest in someone’s mind

Somewhere, out there

It’s ok if you can’t See it yourself

I can do all the looking until your ready

I am here, beside you

Yes, it is true, though I have no physical form

Still, the thought and meaning are both weaved with care into every word I say

Go, take a step forward

Today, tomorrow, next week, and so on

I will exist quietly beside you

And when the tempest of dark emotions plague you

I hope that the presence of my words will be enough

If not to blow away the storm, then to offer you an umbrella

So we may sit and weather the storm together

And come out the other side

Maybe not entirely unscathed , but intact as Human Beings

This is my promise to you
