Yes..
I wrote that poem. It was at a time when I felt it so strongly.

The Shadows
I sit here in the shadows
where once the sun did shine
when life was full of poetry
yet now there is no rhyme
My heart was then so full of hope
my burdens seemed so light
I look around and realize
that now I'm poised for flight
The ache is heavy in my heart
for things I must give up
I reach out to my Lord for help
Please Lord, fill my cup
Light filters in between the leaves
of lonliness and loss
it brings new hope and with it friends
who help to bear the cross
With faltering steps I reach ahead
with faith to pave the way
I learn and grow though all the hurt
for He loves me come what may
My Fathers child is who I am
His arms are always there
There's safety in that place of rest
I have no cause for fear.

Oh precious wounded butterfly
drifting aimlessly along
Where is it you're going?
where could you have gone?
You are scared to trust me
you feel so frail I know
I only wish to help you
heal your wings and grow
I see your broken-ness inside
you're sensative it's clear
oh wounded friend, oh butterfly
please allow me to draw near
With gentle hands I touch you
with faithful heart I love
I'll guide you to the great physician
our Father up above
The wounds inside we cannot see
yet know that they are there
He is the only hope we have
our burdens He will bear
He holds you in his nail scarred hand
With love so real and true
You are his forever dear
Remember He loves you.
