somewhere between

somewhere
between the feeling
of urgency in my heart,
this longing to scoop up
animals and trees
and oceans and people 
and love them 
with words and tears
and light and sound
until all of their pieces
come back together again-
this desire in my heart that has 
existed for as long as my soul 
has peeked through the eyes 
of this body

and the powerful presence,
the knowing 
and wisdom
this louder than life voice inside
that scoops me up 
and quiets my frantic heart 
with a deep, primal melody
a pure, sustained frequency
of ancient cosmic tones
chanting rhythmically…
all is as it should be
all is as it should be
all is as it should be.

that is where you’ll find me
