\nThere is a brokenness
\nout of which comes the unbroken,
\na shatteredness
\nout of which blooms the unshatterable.
\nThere is a sorrow
\nbeyond all grief which leads to joy
\nand a fragility
\nout of whose depths emerges strength.
\n
\nThere is a hollow space
\ntoo vast for words
\nthrough which we pass with each loss,
\nout of whose darkness
\nwe are sanctioned into being.
\n
\nThere is a cry deeper than all sound
\nwhose serrated edges cut the heart
\nas we break open to the place inside
\nwhich is unbreakable and whole,
\nwhile learning to sing.
