The Soul is Drowning

sometimes

it 

feels

like the soul is drowning

as if my whole being

is flooded

with 

thoughts

and feelings

fears and hopes

  

how do I regain

the wonder of life?

how do I keep my heart from sinking?

there is that place

deep within

that clear and honest place

which hears the

deepest cry

there is that place

deeper still

where God is

that place where

we understand and accept

and are healed

where the 

soul

finds

rest
