Trying

A conversation.

That's all it took
to start the silence.

Trying to recall the thoughts
which have crowded my mind
for the past three weeks.

A tear.

That's all it took
to start the sobbing.

Trying to figure out how
the words could make any sense
in a time of endless wrestling.

A hug.

That's all it took
to start the next step.

Trying to ask God
what the future will hold
in the coming months.

A prayer.

That's all it will take
to finally be at peace.

Trying to let go
of the things that were to be
and grab hold of the things meant to be.
