I wish you life

You, my Love, owe me nothing.
You are free, to stay or leave,
as you wish.

Dreams and memories descend unforeseen
but fantasy speaks of hope and happiness,
and that is worth the listen.

Shed tears, for sorrow can be good for the soul
but whisper no words of death.
And a heart, even when broken, still holds life and there is joy in that.

Silence is transient.
Embrace no guilt or obligation.
Be kind and forgiving to others, and also to yourself.

I wish for you, not sleep, but peace
(for in sleeping there is waking)
beyond understanding,
and understand that

I wish you light (to see)
I wish you love (given generously)
I wish you life (lived free)
