Darkness and Light

Calm adopted me today. Not anger. A peace neutral enough to let my gripped heart rest. Sunrise met sunset. But I did not rise. I did not fall. I stayed up upon myself, leveled eye to eye to be equal parts me. A balance of soft motion, a mother's sway, a rocking chair, a quiet story.

Hush. Be still, child.

Life goes on and on and on.

So too, go on and on and on.

Let your life carry your waters when your legs cannot, when your heart is heavy like rock. I continue into the night, embracing the darkness as I do light.
