the feminine divine

the Feminine Divine

the love she felt she did suffer
along her path she found no buffer
that just seemed to be her way

her anguish did not ever cease
and she longed for a certain peace
she knew would come some day

she was filled with an aching hope
that in some way each day she’d cope
that was her only demand

yet deep within her sweet heart’s core
she was endowed with so much more
that she never did understand

yet all that she could ever think of
her solemn loneliness and absence of love
and these thoughts maintained her lament

the shadows always seemed to circle round
her fears and doubts were quite abound
and her heart’s flower lost it’s scent

yet somehow deep inside she knew
that this path she walked was almost through
and her liberation would come to be

and each day our souls express and cry
when we all do ask that question “why”
for ‘tis she who lives in you and me

the feminine divine
