Surprising

isn’t it
surprising
how much
a soul
can
take
then
so little
it takes
to make a
spirit
break

Not broken I pray...just in need of a reprieve, just a peaceful night's sleep, then a day with calm breezes.  You'll find your way.

Surprising too how durable the human spirit, and man's resourcefulness to rise above his painful circumstance.

Surpising
isn't it
how long
the heart
endures
and how
quickly
love
heals
As always I enjoy your words...

Funny
how love
heals
and spirits
quickly mend
when one heart
finds its soulmate

A strong mind can help keep a soul from breaking. Good write.
