Quieting
A solo journey
Spent my life moving fast
Avoiding pain my goal
A change came to me at last
Now I’m listening for my soul
I thought I was fragile
Numbed so I wouldn’t be sad
Fighting an inner battle
Afraid of being sad
Working through things
Inner work & silence
Yoga & sacred gatherings
Grateful for the guidance
Learning to move slow
Intention to be kind
To myself & those I know
Quieting my mind
Sometimes I’m caught
If someone disagrees
For a while I forgot
I only need to breathe
