today
I’m at rest
within myself.

with bare feet,
lying down,
stretching in a patch of sunlight.

I’m allowing myself
to be filled up.
To become full.
I’m allowing myself
to be more.

more
over all my doubts

more
pressing against the boundaries of all my questions

more
regardless of the weight of my memories.

today
I make myself a nest
within myself.
I speak gently to myself,
holding my hand,
stroking it,

saying: “What a marvellous journey you’ve been through!
And
how very real
the journey has made you.”

from now on
I will be at rest
within myself
I will be present
inside of me

my windows open
into the light;

head held high,
hands resting in my lap
like a pair of bids.
