Do I…?


Will the proverbial shoe drop
like it always does?
Do I dare to be happy?
I am so filled up with joy
Things seem to FINALLY
be going my way
Do I DARE to believe?
Do I Dare to let out my breath?
Do I STOP looking over my shoulder?

I am so happy
so giddy
I thank my lucky stars
I THANK GOD
for the Blessings
in my life now
but
is it all
a beautiful
but fleeting dream?
Am I going to wake up
and find
it was not real
and
I am really in the usual pain
and struggle?

I pray God
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Let it NOT be a dream
Let this JOY
this HAPPINESS
this BLISS
be my REALITY now
and the pain, struggle and sadness
behind me
I will not forget it
I will ALWAYS be grateful
and
THANKFUL
to YOU
my Precious Lord
for YOU have made this
wonderful reality
possible…
