On life Opening and closing Systole and diastole How lucky we are! We do not have to command our heart to beat or control the expansion or contraction Lungs fill, lungs empty Organs, physical and spiritual together We live without effort. If only that were true when the heart is pierced by pain Or our bellies drop with fear When the throat parches And the tongue sticks to the roof of the mouth Then we need effort and the courage to risk Standing and standing still Even when the winds blow and the inner admonitions sound true but are not That is when we command our heart to stay strong We swallow the fear We stand and unglue our tongues We say, No Or we say Yes. Systole and diastole. How lucky. Silvia Behrend
