Prayer on the wind

I saw you today,

writing in your favorite coffee shop, 

eyes focused on the keyboard,

you craft a message to the world. 

My insides melt, 

even after all this time.

I wish I could tell you.

I wish you could hear. 

But words cannot exit these lips, 

Too much history,

too much hurt.

And so I say this prayer and hope it finds you.

I pray you are happy,

that joy and prosperity surround you,

your garden blooms, 

your vision of hope becomes reality, 

And your daughter knows what an incredible man you are. 

I say this as I pass the coffee shop

hoping it will travel on the wind 

to you.
