Bridge To the Heart

He spoke, Sounding so surreal I could feel emotions traveling the distance that separated I listened, With deep intention, to the stories of newfound happiness, of connection, of love Energy leaped out, onward, and beyond, Mixing with fear And, as if able to sense my all Words were shared to remind me of my place Of how things, ever changing as they may be, remain Like heartbeats do inside bodies, as if inside their own- Calming ambivalence blends with knowing to form an invisible bridge As I, carefully find my home at the beginning.
