People need other people

I'm moments away from "locked & loaded" for Thurs. I leave after work, probably not immediately. However, I'm pretty well ready. A few strategical packing choices left tonight, then fini. If I "go through with my plan" on here, I'll do it tomorrow. Don't think I'll have time Thurs. 
Meanwhile TWLOHA has asked "What does People need other people mean to you?"

Be... & Breathe
If I sit in ashes,

I don't sit alone

if it feels

like

my heart

has swallowed a hand-grenade

someone will help

find
& pick up

the pieces

someone will kneel

down next to me

in the silent

undoneness

of my life

we don't have to speak

they know

they don't have
to say a word

they just need

to be

& breathe

next to me

knowing that,

hearing them,

makes a difference

 

we don't always need answers

we don't always need a song

we don't always need a book

we just need

each other

someone

to be with us

no matter what

people

need other people.

I'm loving this song: JJ Heller - If You Fall
"You are a house that’s broken down
You are a house that’s burning
And everything in me wants to run
But that’s not love

If you fall, I fall with you
If you hurt I feel it too
Even if my heart turns black and blue
I will love you..."
 
...see, TWLOHA isn't just a non-profit... it's kind of the answer to their own question.  What does People need other people mean? ...it means having someone to write love on your arms.

May His grace drip from your fingers,
B
