Boom

I used to try
to feel
my heartbeat
…in silence

Meditation,
Listening
Feeling for it

As one might feel
for a light switch
in the dark

Or a piece of furniture
you know is there
but cannot see

So different
Now.
And Now. And Now.

All that
I can feel
Is my heartbeat

As if It is
knocking against
my rib cage

As if it is
Coming out
of my mouth

As if It is
Burning
through my skin

I am one Heart
Dancing, Stumbling
Feeling my way
Back Home.
