Sudden heat, a sudden sting,
A startle that the senses bring.
The sudden drop, the rapid pulse,
When quiet rhythms start to shock.
The body shields, the body stays,
Through stormy weather, heavy days.
It guards the door, it holds the line,
To keep you safe until it’s fine.
Now let the air grow soft and cool,
Let stillness be the only rule.
No rush to fix, no speed to run,
Just sitting quiet in the sun.
A steady breath, a quiet place,
To give your heart a little space.
The shock will fade, the moment bends,
And peace slowly returns again.
