My heart is Kshanti.

Scarred with forbearance

from the actions of those un-awakened

to the compassion from transformation.

It beats with the patience,

the waiting and longing,

of better times

to come.

The rhythm

of the beat

is endurance;

a longing, that one day,

awakening will open the eyes,

to the universe.
