A Debt

My heart clamors within my chest.
Fears have been abated with a cleansing
tide.
My worries settle like dust to rest,
As they no longer have the need to try and hide.
My friendships remain
blessed,
as they nourish a thirsty soul inside.
Through poetry I've dealt with the trials,
That life, destiny or fate would deal.
It
has helped me endure the lengthy miles.
And has opened my eyes to what I feel.
But there is one whose words are like
smiles,
from the face of love, that enriches and heals.
I will be there for her,
as she makes me secure and whole.
She
offers inspiration...
A light in the tunnel... A goal.
There is so much she has given me,
replacing the many things
that life did steal.
I owe her more than a debt of gratitude,
I owe my friendship to one Joyce O'Neal.
