The sun shines down on me,
golden rays seeps through the green.
I find stillness in the silence
and settle in to the sound of the stream.
I give in to the urge to be
just as free as the softly blowing breeze.
I fold.
I bend.
I move.
It soothes.
I settle in
to my consciousness contraption.
I sink too far deep-
It becomes hard to breathe,
but the bottom of the ocean holds
some beautiful things
and the depths of my mind
is more than memories.
I sing.
I weep.
I dance.
I sleep.
And when I wake, I make mistakes .
But, although I bend,
I do not break.
I grow.
I console.
I pray.
I float.
for today is
the only truth that is
known.
So
when my time comes,
give my soul to the trees
as I become one,
&
one
becomes
me.
