stretch

reach further than your limbs
reach further than your mind

stretch
beyond the horizon
beyond the moon
beyond the sun

stretch
into the unknown
into the universe

stretch
dissolving anxieties
dissolving restlessness

stretch
embracing the light
embracing the simplest task

if you need to scream
do so
if you need to shriek
do so
if you need to squeal
do so
if you need to weep
do so

sensitivities
ride high
feeling on edge
whether it be bliss
or pain

well
………well
my dear friend…
you sit alone in contemplation
may i sit without disturbing your thought
may i sit and share a time
…………………………..of solitude
may i sit and learn the lessons
that other’s have sought

may we sit together
on a wordless wandering

there is an agitation
in the atmosphere

waiting
for you

to clear the path
of conflict

to break the habits
of struggle

to recognize
obstructions

to acknowledge
your security blanket

balance
with breath
