the peace she chases

i lost my breath
chasing peace
knowing well she could not be caught

only met,
in the quiet garden of my heart
when i sit
near the creek of my mind
and listen
to the bumblebee
alone
in her palace of lavender.

i lost our path
chasing peace
knowing well her footsteps
could be found
near the shore of my soul
if i let the waves of grace roll
washing
my sands of sin.

Breath in my Divine
inhale, exhale
she says.
