you
are invited
to sit with we
by our private pond

a place
where
we gather as one

shedding sorrows
detaching from distress
undressing unwanted recollections
in an effort
to find calm

tears
may drench our cheeks
while we weep in unison

this a cleansing
of pent up pains
together
we leave them
to drift
to drift
to evaporate
no longer
claiming one as hostage

purging
all anger
removing
all your raw rage

clearing
your mind
breathing
in time
with a slowing heartbeat

easing
into
a relaxed mindful state

you are invited
into our tranquil space
