Awakening

Awakening

I took the breath. It was my first step.

I let time slow. That was my next step. 

I stopped rushing. Filling time. Feeling busy. Feeling full but empty and dull. 

I closed my eyes. I looked in. I found it all. 

Everything that had been brushed aside. 

Overlooked.

Unacknowledged. 

My ME was there. 

Patient. Waiting. There. All along. 

I opened my eyes. My next step. 

I let my ME lead. THE defining step.  

The changes were subtle. They were extreme. 

They were everything in between.
