a shard in my heart

not something simple, human
the divine planted within us
Spirit of the living God
sent to grow within us
a shard in my heart
our conscience, the whisper
the guiding of the Spirit, life
seeking to draw us inward
to a relationship with God
a trust in his provision
leading us to the narrow way
turning from the world
a shard in the heart
sharp edges, deep meaning
keeping us on the path
if we would follow its leading
