Lifeforce
It came before us all
And will continue after we have left.
It lives in birdsong
In ocean waves on sand
And in the heartbeats of every one of us.
It wanders between the knitted fingers of lovers
Tiptoes its way into sunrises
And curls up with those of us who don’t have anyone.
Music.
It breaths just as surely as a person
Crescendos like booming thunder
Swells like the tide
And whispers that everything
will be
okay.
