Light In Sound

Light in sound

A day has started once again.

A day where pain is my only friend.

Heavy heart and swollen eyes.

Too weak to raise voice to the sky. 

So I sit here quietly

Pondering what life should be.

I listen to the winter breeze

Swiftly passing through the trees.

I listen to inspiring song,

And inside

My soul sings along.

Hear the notes,

Feel the swell.

The spirit whispers

“All is well.”

I listen to enlightened word

And my heart is strongly stirred. 

I have no hate

Not an ounce.

For yet again 

I am found.

Through the haze

And through the smoke,

I am rooted

Like an oak.

I am centered.

I am strong.

I know who I am.

I know where I belong.
