How

     how do I express

     in mere words 

     all that my heart knows?

How do I describe

   the only peace that lasts

   the only joy that holds

   the love that never fades?

How do I convey 

    that God

    is more than just a high,

    and that emotions let you down?

How do I speak the truth

   when the truth is far too blunt,

   when the romantic veil is torn,

   and life seeps through the cracks?

All I want is to say what I know

     to share how I’ve grown

           show how I’ve changed.

It’s not the high,

Not the low.

It’s the still small voice in my heart.
