Heart's sigh

When you're feeling it.. and your heart wants nothing more than to feel it.

Realities that I try to stay above,

eventually come to find me.

It wants me to comfort those feelings,

instead of rising above them.

So today, I sit with it.

All the s**t, mud feelings that also want to be seen.

To be heard. By me.

No one is coming to save me.

I'm being forged of fire,

begrudgingly.

Sadness.

In moments like this life loses its color.

I believe that life is colored by love. 

And all types of love at that.

Realities break through the illusions that keep me alive.

Maybe even you can agree, this is a very sad thing indeed.

Even in darkness there is a beauty.  Even in sadness there's love. 

So I sit; I revive myself in the black and the sad, with the black and the sad.

An ember burns.

It will grow and it will shine a light that will color my world again. I believe it!

But today,

I sit. 

Soothing my wounds around this ember, in the darkness of my world.
