Gift
Through all the strain designed to break us down,
through all the scuffles of a life constrained,
one truth remains unchanged, one love remains.
There is a sacred place in people's lives,
a place resilient to filth and snare.
I'll meet you there, in truth, I'll meet you there.
The waste builds up as to forget the gift,
but I return to it like waves to shore.
When life spews pointless, petty builds, our souls are more.
I breathe the air, I touch the ground, I shiver,
when warmth and waves reach out to touch my hand.
I'm born into the miracle of freedom, the gift of a beginning without end.
