Know That I Too

thoughtsFromB4

To You, With Love, From Me

Please know I too have felt there is nothing left,
been afraid, and out of hope.
Please know I too have felt there is nothing left
and did not know if I could cope.

Please know that I too have felt alone
and watched my strength drift beyond my view.
Please know that I too have felt alone,
but know that you are not because I love you.

Because I, like you, have felt the type of pain
that only our minds can manifest.
Because I, like you, have felt the type of pain
as though a world sits upon my chest.

Because I, like you, know how it feels
when life is devoid of joy completely.
Because I, like you, know how it feels
to fight my brain and have it defeat me.

Know that I too have stood at the edge,
casting stones into the void.
Know that I too have stood at the edge,
longing just to be destroyed.

Know that I too have stopped for death,
though he did not stop for me.
Know that I too have stopped for death
yet in This Now you find me free.

Know that I have faced the darkness too,
and I have found my ways to clear it.
Know that I have faced the darkness too,
and no longer have need to fear it.

But know that, even so, I too have wavered
in my care of both my body and my spirit.
And know that I too have also wavered,
in despair, so when I say this, please hear it:

Know that I have found my way and know that you can too,
For it is within our hearts, not heads, we truly hold our spirit.
And know this, last and most sincerely, that you are truly loved,
That a path for you is just ahead, and you are oh so very near it.
