trapped moments

spent some time this evening
fellowshiping
around a table
with friends

there was such familiarity
in the ache

a deep common yearning
piercing loneliness behind the smiles

made me think

no matter how well constructed the walls
how secure the bars


if you listen a bit
you can see the crack in the dam



I wonder if it is only true community
that will unchain us all
and open the gates
to discover who we are

yes... and amen/
but finding such a community
is almost impossible it would seem
maybe i need to move closer!
