Matters of the Heart
as the waves crash
up against the chisled rocks
their echoing sounds resonate
the bruises of a battered heart
we find peace
within the chanting messsage
the whispers soothe
to heal our soul
listening to the matters of the heart
as the world outside
bellows with agony and pain
here we release our tears
into the depths of the sea
like the ripples in the ocean waters
our wounds bleed
seeking solace
our being unites with the divine
a timeless ritual
to comfort the mattersof the heart
as we search for strength
the glow of the sun
leads us to calm waters
united with rhythm of nature
we rest in tranquility
holding unto the hands of wisdom
our wounds are medicated
resting in peaceful waters
we are back home
touching the matters of the heart
