a heartbeat underwater, reverberates eternally
beautifully
and every mountain is built
a grain of sand at a time
and all the tallest trees
the strongest trees
were born of a single seed
taking root and sprouting one brilliant leaf at a time
i try to mimic the calm determination
and unwavering persistence
of the infallibly majestic tree-
by moving step by step
and one foot forward at a time
because a heartbeat underwater, reverberates eternally
a heartbeat underwater, reverberates eternally
beautifully
maybe it's the pressure, the force
the challenge
of the sound wave
weaving heartily through the obstructive water-
determined and immutable; beautiful-
a heartbeat underwater
(though i may be drowning)
but the moment i want to come up for air
is the moment i have to dive deeper
and learn to breathe underwater
because a heartbeat underwater, reverberates eternally
a heartbeat underwater reverberates eternally
beautifully
immutably.
