Running. Chasing. Heart.
We run through the forest,
Chasing our hearts as they skip away from us.
We are desperate to stay in the light of their joy.
Without…
Without we wander in darkness
Smacking our heads into trees
Unable to see a path forward
With…
With, the world shines
Everything comes into focus
And I am driven to joy by joy.
If I could wrap my heart in my hands
And force it, wriggling and bright, into my chest
And keep it there until the last rise and fall of the sun,
My life would be complete, my passion full,
And my eyes could never wonder from the paths of my joy.
