Feelings.

Feelings won’t kill me, but will they try? I am learning to hold pain and abundance - at the same time. Feelings are impermanent, they are meant to come and go. Some with grace, like laughter on a sunny day. Some hurt and sting, like snow. When snow comes down, it is hard to see. The cold encloses me, forgetting to breathe. Jaw clenches, fists tight. Waiting for the emotion to pass, I start to notice the fight. Tension inside, nowhere to run — how to find inner peace without the sun? Breathing slowly, remembering grace. The light never left, it’s in the same place. Deep inside, harder to accept than to find. Embracing the cold, looking toward the sky. Summer will come again, until then can I let myself shine?
