paying attention

 

Look. 


Pay attention to 

the honest details. 


Inhale. Exhale. Keep 

On going into each 

Fresh day. 


Breathe and be 

Happy as often as 

You can, so life 

Can make sense. 


I still haven't been up to 

Writing, yet today, a random day, 

I felt like I should stop by

To visit my old self and see 

If words might connect us. 


I see myself disconnected 

And quiet, and I don't know 

What to do about it except 

Be more quiet. Silence somehow 

Is comforting when so much is 

Still unhealed—might never be. 


Encased in perfect silence surrounding

The feelings that have no place

To go, no place to be felt or seen. Thus

Creating a special place where

Love is still possible and joy

Can be felt regardless of 

What kind of day it has been.


Breathe in the good and 

Blessings of the day as

You eradicate the shadows 

That have no place but

To show us where to find 

The light, the blessed light.


Radiate forgiveness in

Your silence. Let yourself 

Be held and nurtured by

The care you offer 

Others. 


You live and breathe and 

Therefore deserve

What you would give

To all living people. 


Breathe in that

Truth

And smile


At the fact

That


You are worth paying attention to.
