i am waiting
i am patient
but what is it i am waiting for
i can hold it all in
and wait for the swell
but will i even recognize the moment when it is here
when i need to stand up
and ride the wave
face it
confront it
flow with it
in the stillness
of a moment
a moment confused
not lost
just perpetually misunderstood
i often
sink
soak in
the anger
the pain
the sadness
the negativity
and i disappear
in the quicksand of darkness
in my bones
i've endured the worst of it
but still at their core
the hope
the marrow of an undefined future
potential without limits
potential full of creation
the cells of a new beginning
inside my bones
i know
my fate
i know
and trust in the unknown
i know i will be taken care of
i know i am perfect
in this divine moment
and always will be
the grounding
center
of my heart
never falters
it remains steady as a rock
it knows
more than my head
can ever dream of
fully comprehending
its bigger than me or us
or this or that
my heart
steady as a rock
holds down the fort
warns of danger ahead
and always keeps away invaders
trying to steal the treasures and stability beneath
listen
listen to your heart
it whispers to you
all day long
telling you the secrets of you
the creation of perfection
the truth
as steadily beating
never missing a drop
steady
steady like a rock
