Down, but Back Again

Mother Goddess,

When I lost so much,
I stumbled;

I fell away from what I still had;
Leaving me empty, broken, alone.

Despair engulfed me;
Pain was my companion.

Until I heard you call me.

As I learn to listen to you,
And feel you in my life,
I become whole again.

You amaze me,
You heal me,
You guide me home.

Hope is with me, because you showed me.

I am back.
