There is a place I go to
each night
to renew myself

my own heart

keeps the beat
that moves my feet

forward
into balance

I prefer
forward motion

for steps backward
only make me trip and fall

usually on my face
never with grace

I prefer balance

and find it within
mind's silent corners,
and my heart

yet even when
I am alone within
my own heartbeat
and mind,
I still feel you

and I am refreshed

Ohhhhhh, Kacy...

I sincerely think you've been doing some "spying" into my heart and my head...this is too close to all the feelings I've been writing about lately. Thank you so much for sharing it.

Love and Light...jc
