To look deep inside as I write.
My heart spills out like never before
And answers to questions
Lie in wait for trust to be shown
When all is torn from within
Where do we look for love?
Where do we cry our hearts out too?
When all seems lost
I’ll tell you where,
You look in your soul where it always was,
Where the courage to face up to pain,
Sits on the beat that pulses so strong.
Reflections of days past
Look back at tear filled eyes
And without conviction,
You fight back every one.
Keep it real and keep it true,
A heart is a soft life in another’s hands
Take care of it and it will grow
Weakness will fade from the touches felt.
That is what I feel right now, this very minute
As my heart yearns for realisation of compassion
To be understood completely
And unconditionally
Mine can only be so strong
Mine can only take so much
But it is strong enough to fight
And will never turn a loose from its place.
nor will it be left discarded like a piece of paper
born of thoughts unfounded
nor will the one that is held so tightly
but resurface, like a phoenix from the flames
not ashen or charred
but warmed with love
heated to feel alive
once more,,,forever.
