In That Place
When you find itCome back and tell us.What did you see in that starless dark?What heavens deserted youand how did you survivethose broken nightsin the junglenot knowing if you would everbe found again?How did you crawl from your bedIn the days beyondacceptable grief?Who did you becomeafter they left you for deadsix of them, you said?With what did you mendand stitch yourself wholeand return to love withoutever having received it?Take your precious beauty backalong those abandoned trackswhen you get therelet your voice riseshout your nameIn that place you arestrong, my friend.Go this time to nameby what curious graceyou came back once.You will never get lost there again.
*This poem is dedicated to all of the dear souls in The Author Awakening Adventure 2017group.
Author, writing mentor, retreat leader. I’m an internationally bestselling author of nine books, inspirational speaker and writing mentor. I’ve had books published in just about every genre- fiction, non-fiction, self-help, memoir – by some of the top publishing houses in the world. My books have sold over 650 000 copies and have been translated in a range of languages. Two of my books have been #1 Amazon bestsellers, and at one point the German edition of Secret Mothers’ Business outsold Harry Potter- crazy, right?
