Earthquake v. Heartbreak

When the ground pulses and the world shakes,
Then I feel settled.
When the earth moves and the clouds laugh at the ground,
Then I am comforted.
When my house rattles and the china and wine glasses clatter,
Then I have peace.

When you stop loving me,
I fear for my life
When you say it's over,
I lose my breath,
When you say goodbye,
My world is shattered.

Next time the earth is quaking, I'll simply thank God that my heart isn't breaking.
