W3 :: lost and found

Unslept nights

Floating between here and there

Looking for an anchor

At the mercy of the wind, words and worries

It’s there, within her hands

Only her soul can touch it

When she is ready to receive

The bright light of peace

Grounded and rested

A breeze bathes away the worries

A smile of comfort

Lights up her face
