The heart of life
The heart of life
dark nights, thunderous winds, storms rushed from depths of anxiety,
fear, destruction erodes frantically the silver ‘round the heart of life,
running barefoot, fields thorn scattered, barbed wire fences held back agony,
anger explodes, burning wild fires ravished the heart of life,
grasping through nightmares, falling, trembling abandoned screams, murmured voices echoed, pain cutting wide open the heart of life,
tossing, turning emotions into rapid desire, fought frantically
cold winter snow, frozen thoughts, the only truth in the heart of life,
then out of the dark, from the shadows of the twisted mind
gentle eyes of wonder, piercing, silently, tenderly from the heart of life,
cloak draped covered scars, crown of thorns, taken not in vain,
voice of love, spoken words unravel, untangle the fear from the heart of life,
mending broken dreams, comforting, replenish uneased distress
arms holding, touching the hem, salvation for the heart of life.

As all prints are hand pressed, each will have some minor differences, which I believe adds to the character of the print. I cannot guarantee that you will receive the edition featured in the photo.
