Presence

there’s a moment

when your 
most ardent prayer

is answered

when your long

arduous vigils

and supplications

bear fruit

by an act of Grace

every atom

of your being

is suddenly

undeniably

overwhelmed

by Presence

It Is All There Is

as if

you’ve dissolved

into the sun

there’s nothing

but Light

everywhere

and in that moment

you know:

not for a moment 

were you ever alone

not for a heartbeat

were you 

ever abandoned

He was always near

He was always

right Here!

holding you

it was you

who was lost and deaf

and blind

it was you

who was absent

for a very long

immeasurable time

He waited lovingly

patiently

for you

and this

This

was the point

of it All
