Paula Swanson Poet Verse

Pivotal Point....Palindrome

Beating hearts lay beneath,
where souls, dead, from love awaits.
Armour as toughened emotions,
chained and beaten.
Yet, hope, holds quietness of mind.
Waning torment and time.
Eventually comes peace.
Strength resolved.
Pivotal.
Resolved strength.
Peace comes eventually,
time and torment waning.
Mind of quietness, holds hope yet.
Beaten and chained emotions,
toughened as amour, awaits love.
From dead souls,where 
beneath, lay hearts beating.
