and in that peace
beyond the pain
no harm can reach
even while
the world is
going under
respite
a sudden wave
of emotional pain
flooding every corner
of the moment
leaving no room
for respite
only to reveal
once it withdraws
a peace beyond
the pain
mesmerise
morning moodiness
mildly mounting
mournful memories
mesmerising the minds
more merrily meeting
with the moment
about
subtle signs
that ancient behaviours
are about
to dissolve
are just as significant
as they are subtle
puncture
when neediness
is punctured
all there is left
is freedom
division
facing
our inner division
is
asking
to heal
between
allowing the balance
between
vulnerability
and action
to find gravity
and settle
stray
stepping into
a new life
after years
and years
of straying
can be just as natural
as it seemed impossible
ever
being able to recognise
and acknowledge
our state of being
to take responsibility for it
might be all
we were ever
asked
sentence
one simple sentence
revealing
awareness
in areas
which were hitherto
left in darkness
one simple sentence
opening
the heart
when not forced
nor denied
but simply heard
