rest

Oooh Rest⠀
take me in your gentle arms
and don’t let me go ⠀
Not until these eyes ⠀
these ears ⠀
these lungs and heart ⠀
feel renewed ⠀
By this darkened silence ⠀
By this vast, yet close in, emptiness ⠀
⠀
Give me space to ripen ⠀
Into my own knowing⠀
and letting go of knowing. ⠀
And offer myself to Being,
like fruit ⠀
⠀
Seasoned for harvest ⠀
full of sweetness ⠀
and life ⠀
ready for dawn⠀
