My heart churns, it doesn’t beat
Thinking of the last time
The last time
We would meet.
I didn’t understand
Why
You were sad
Saying words that changed
Everything.
My love, my heart
All things
Near and far in this land.
My heart churns, it doesn’t beat
I hear it cry
As all alone
I stand.

Wondering why or did I see
How the heart mends
Without any seams.
Tragedy, chaos and most likely strife
Rip holes in my being
Then along comes kindness
Dipped in strength
Changing everything.
A smile, a laugh, a gentle caress
Hold me together
Thru anything.
I’m not wondering
I know, I see
With love my heart mends
Without any seams.
