my world crumbling like sugar cookies
like mexican bread
like last year’s autumn foliage
and i’m still smiling
because my heart
is still beating
and my God
is not leaving
he’s right here beside me
and that is my balance, my peace,
and all that is still sweet
i can still feel it, taste it,
and hold love delicately
for the good it can still do
and for what it still has in store for me
