Rescued Heart

Transient motion, this living and breathing and battling the wind Cork popping ocean, on bottles with SOS signals within Riding in waves, pushing and pulling of swirling black currents Eternity scathed, overhead, out of reach, feeling unworthy Lifeboat arrives, shoulders reach down to your salt curing skin You are alive, those rescuing you see the shape you are in Enclave emotion, singing to sleep in the warmth of four walls Heart beat in motion, always in tune to the next time it falls.
