The light within.
I feel joyful and playful today.
Lighter.
And I wonder…
Isn’t that my natural state?
Being playful.
Silly.
Wasn’t that me?
It feels like…
A homecoming.
To feel like this.
And looking at the world with wonder.
Seeing the immense beauty all around.
For so long…
I’ve been someone who doesn’t smile anymore.
Someone who worries all the time.
And allows all those thoughts to run through his head.
Someone who forgot how to laugh.
And got way too serious.
Carrying burdens, even those that aren’t his.
Someone who’s been so scared for so long.
Of the world.
The people.
Himself.
His own power.
Oh, but that’s not me.
It’s not.
No.
The roles I’ve assumed.
The masks I’ve put on.
The symbols I’ve hidden behind.
The sweet alluring mysteries.
And the ever-so-familiar darkness.
So quiet.
So cosy.
And the cold.
Weighing down the warmth within.
I am light.
I am truth.
I am love.
I am god.
I am me.
I am you.
I am everything.
I am nothing.
I am eternal.
I am.
I am.
I am.
