Go Back to You

Go back to you

Away from the lives that bump around on your screen
​
Away from the soul-kidnapping noise of theories and statistics and probabilities and celebrities

Go back to your feet, your hands, then to your breath

Go back to the silence that is huddled inside of you, holding its knees to its chest and hiding from it all, hoping you’ll come visit and sit for a while

Go back to what you know, even if it is no bigger than a sea shell

Then trust that and allow it to be enough, allow yourself to exhale in its closeness

There you will find rest, healing, truth and deep connection

You will remember beauty and peace and the almost orgasmic pleasure of a deep intentional breath

Laughter, too

You will be back to you.
