Could Be
Aimee, Friends of Guest House, April 30, 2020
when u look within
i see images of things broken, things repaired, and the empty spaces of things lost.
When i look within i see the shadows of memories.
Faces of days past. The ghostly touch of grasping hands.
When i look within i see what was what is and what could be

“…it is a phenomenal program.” Why, they’re talking about us! The best testament to the power and positive impact of our work is when our program partners praise us. It makes our day. Here, Friends of Guest House executive director Kari Galloway mentions Heard’s work as part of how they are keeping their residents safe and sane in a feature posted in the Alexandria Gazette Packet. Thank you Kari! You are the best and we love working with you!
FOR ME?

I said to them it is a complicated excerpt ,
but is it my story?
A continued story with no precise end or beginning .
Is it for them?
Or is it for me?
AT BAY..

I speak to my pain,
how long can you keep the great sadness at bay?
Pain answers, until you can overcome it.
i whisper to my curiosity,
how have the waves not drug you under?
Curiosity simply answers hope.
Then i ask will there be a pocket of air underneath the pressure of the sea?
Light is above the water and you must reach for it.
WE WILL

And I said to her: Will you see how wonderful you are?
And she said: Will you show me?
And I Said to her: Will you forgive yourself?
And she said: Will I have suffered enough?
And I said to us: Will we ever love ourselves?
And we said: Will we help each other?
