So easy to fall
Into the pit of quicksand.
So quickly blown
Into the cortex of whirlwind.
So it is that this very mind
Sinks to depths
And flusters in circles.
One minute
Slim of thought
So tranquil is life,
Next an uproar
As confusion brings strife.
Acting almighty
As if in control
When all the while
Breaking loose as turmoil.
One breath in
One breath out
Diminishes quicksand
To a playful sandbox.
One breath in
One breath out
The gusty wind
Is but a calm breeze.
Hand in hand
Heart and mind
Which will lead?
Which will follow?
With ears turned in
Answers are heard
Equilibrium sounds
And home is found.
Yet not from the song of the heart
Nor the buzz of the mind
But a silence supreme
Where peace is sublime.
One minute
Slim of thought
So tranquil is life,
Next an uproar
As confusion brings strife.~ Fantastic lines. A beautiful write.

Sublime poetic excellence!
You have a gift.
To touch upon the untouchable
Can only occur by feeling it.
However you have come to know
Continue to grow.
For a heart that has been illuminated
Is the noblest of expressions
Of being human.
Wishing you all the best for your journey to express.
