What is this force that stirs within,
an unseen tide beneath my skin?
It shifts, it sways and sometimes makes a sound;
it even moves my world and turns me around.
A mystery deep. I cannot see,
what triggers its next dance in me.
It overwhelms and it takes control
by flooding my body and gripping my soul.
Emotion—energy in motion’s name,
a force untamed, a blazing flame.
God, how I wish to hold it tight,
to guide its path and to dim its light.
Yet, though it storms and shakes my core,
I know its worth which I can't ignore.
For in its surge, it speaks to me,
revealing truths I cannot flee.
It binds me to my humanness,
a map to pain, to joy and to stress.
It marks the road where I have been
and points the way to dreams unseen.
So while I wrestle and while I plead,
I know this force is what I need.
For life’s great journey, fierce and true,
depends on what this motion cues.
