Near and ever

Near and ever   

                                                                                          

Call to Me (whispered my Beloved)
in your bravest, unencumbered moments
 
with the same intensity
as your deepest misery,
 
devoid of artifice or deceit,
as when you unabashedly clamor
 
in your pain for solace, mercy, rescue.
It is your coming to Me that counts –
 
that heart-throat quality of intimacy,
honesty and need to which I respond.
 
And in that balance, that loyalty,
that silence, you will find Me
 
near and ever with you
as I have always been.
 
O child of God, be it from fear or love,
He responds to your every heartfelt attempt.
