AN OASIS by anon.

Masking the pain and hiding the fear;
shedding tears in silence so that others will not hear.
Thus you become adept at playing out your role;
so cleverly disguising “the dark night of your soul.”

Who sees the pain behind ‘smiling’ eyes?
Who knows the hidden anguish….. borne by a heart that cries?
It’s thought of with shame in this Society
to admit to falling victim to the winds of adversity.

What occurs when everything seems too hard to bear?
When you lose your grip and slip into despair?
How can you rise above this situation?
Only through the power of Love’s manifestation.

All that I know is that One has gone before…………
He’s walked every pathway and opened every door.
Within a barren heart – as in a desolate land;
He creates a well-spring……. “An Oasis” in the sand!
