Hiya....umm..remember when I wrote that “To love you must prepare to lose..” thing? Well, below are the words to a great song that explains much. It was written by a guy who lost both his wife and kids all at once in an accident. This story also reflects what I have been through, and a loss that is like a hole as big as the universe...maybe moreso. I just don’t know where the depression ends and the pain for mourning my losses begins. As Carl Jung once said..”I don’t believe how close to grief, depression feels like.” The tears that I cried years ago on that night when the police officer arrived on my doorstep with the horrifying news feel like the same ones I cry today. Anyhow..here are the words....
Secret Touch
The way out
Is the way in
The way out
Is the way in...Out of touch
With the weather and the wind direction
With the sunrise
And the phases of the moon
Out of touch
With life in the land of the loving
With the living night
And the darkness at high noonYou can never break the chain
There is never love without pain
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heartOut of sync
With the rhythm of my own reactions
With the things that last
And the things that come apart
Out of sync
With love in the land of the living
A gentle hand, a secret touch on the heart
A healing hand, a secret touch on the heartThere is never love without pain
Life is a power that remains........
