Then we breathe

Sometimes there is only silence
It’s dark
It’s cold
There is still
The moon shines

We sit alone
We observe
We wait
We see
We hear

The inhale of breath
The exhale follows
There’s the gap
Between the exhale
And the new breath

There in the gap
There is life
There is the moment
There is the connection with all
There is the universe

Silence is life
The stillness teaches
The moment unfolds
Without sound
Then we breathe

At peace

At Peace

Permanently there forever
The clouds will stay
The darkness will never lift
The gloom is everywhere
Everyone is the same

Wait wait wait wait
There is a break
There is a crack
There is a shard of light
Wait I’m waking

Not from my slumber
Not from a deep sleep
Not from the night
I am waking
From my mind

My breath brings light
My soul brings joy
My essence is now
The universe brings change
Everything is temporary

Clouds are in my mind
Doom is within my thoughts
Darkness always turns to light
The gloom is my imagination
I am in this moment…at peace
