Peace

Peace

You are weightless, light as a hummingbird
Wind charging past, torrent of fear
Icy as fresh snow on Christmas day
Your wings outstretched, soaring over the Earth
Buildings as small as pebbles
Humans, nonexistent, riding the gust of life
Speeding, as if you were on the highway
Crystal blue, blank emotionless clouds
Turbulence making it a rollercoaster
Until
You
Plummet
And
Hit
Rock
Bottom
Is all hopeless? Is all lost?
You sink, currents pushing you side to side
Bubbles, carrying your protest rise while
You continue to descend
Air is sucked out of your lungs
Sand covers your mouth, eyes
You lunge forward, desperate
Accept failure, accept your flaws
Lightened without this burden of pain
You
Rise
To
See
Another
Sunset
Floating, weightless, staring at the sun
Not too high, not too low
You
Are
Finally
At

Peace

Namaste (Molly)
