Inner Solace

Warm my troubled heart

There has to be a way around this heartbreak
a way to find a summer day within

I’ve known cool sands and soft breezes
crashing waves foaming upon the shore

Walks along the beach at sunset
the way my footprints form paths of light

I’ve known the rush of jumping in water
shocking to my system, pure exhilaration

there have been days of pleasure, days of warmth
sunshine beaming on my face and hands

days I will remember all my life
a softness more powerful than strife
