Battle of Heart and Mind

This oasis that resides deep inside me Which reflects in my eyes In this drama of the sky I see myself at times The sun plays with the clouds which knows nothing better covered in shroud The moon tugs at the tides which recede Like my heart deep in my core I take a pause and open thoughts door Drenched in my own battle I look at strife As I align this delicate balance with a plan I call a truce as I look with eyes open not blind As time and tide wait for no man or mind I seek happiness and just try to be kind 2.2.2021 Sponsor: Unseeking Seeker Inner Aligment Premier Contest Winner- 10th Place
