Below The Surface

Below the surface
Below the intimidating snarls
Below the scars of the world that lost the war
Below the flowing depth of a bloodline
Is Peace
Below the crushing onslaught of the strongest weaker punch
Below the pain of the feltless heart
Below the tears heard slamming down in the dark
Is redemption
Below the arms of the loved
Below the dirt of the earth
Below the shine of the day lit for a few hours
Is love

Place your hand on your heart, and remind yourself
To breathe
Because below the surface of your skin
Well
