Whispers of the Restless Heart

Chasing dreams we cannot hold, seeking peace we already own.

By Life HopesPublished 11 months ago 1 min read

A heart that longs, yet never rests,

Chasing shadows, seeking the best.

The sun may rise, the dreams may come,

Yet still it whispers, “You’re not done.”

.

We reach for love, we reach for gold,

Yet touch slips through, our hands grow cold.

A fleeting joy, a moment’s grace,

And still we wander, still we chase.

.

The world outside may give, may take,

But peace is something we must make.

In quiet breath, in simple sights,

In gratitude, the heart ignites.

.

For wanting fades when seeing true,

The soul has all it ever knew.
