Whispers

Whispers in the silence

Speak of soothing

Warm flow of peace

Embraces my heart

As I listen

And feel

So far from alone

If the breath of God sustains us

As I am sure it must

Then a portion of our soul

Belongs to this power

And when trust in it is broken

Then we well and truly sink

Like a heavy stone

Falling into the oblivion of being lost

So far from the care and love

Of the one who in having all power

Is able to hold us close

Even in those moments

When our soul and body

Tremble
