Jagged Edges Singing
In this moving collection of poetry, we are drawn up through stygian darkness as it alchemizes into layers of increasing light. The poet’s long and convoluted path of heart and soul healing rings the bell of our own deepest wounding.
Her lifelong work illuminates ancient wounds transcending into the realm of self-love and self-acceptance. Though, “Fragmented into a thousand-thousand shards. Glittering in the slanted light of day.” We may yet rise, “With jagged edges singing.”
From Josephine Faulk, MPH, author of WORTHY A Personal Guide for Healing Your Childhood Trauma and its companion Workbook of the same title.
Shattered
Fragmented into a thousand-thousand shards.
Glittering in the slanted light of day.
I pick through—searching out chunks of brightness.
Jagged edges singing of possibilities.
What use now, separated from
your wholeness?
How can you still shine—though broken?
No longer vase—standing firm
in your usefulness-
Defined,
Contained,
Containing.
So long waiting for release.
At last—at peace,
You remain,
Perfect in your glassness;
With jagged edges singing.
