It is said the heart is a forest
green with life it is fed
with the breath
of love
pulsing renewal
in each moment rebirth
is possible, yet we wear the shield
of armor with thoughts of valor
forgetting
the sword that cleaves
is in our hands shining the green
like a mirror into eyes refusing to see
the life that is love
held inside
