On the resilience of it

 


I watch raindrops
kissing my window

hear softness
tapping on glass,

I wrap myself in
this small moment
as I douse myself
into my cool bed

immersing my
raging skin in
the safety of it,

my thoughts turn
into salt water, my
body passes on
to the next wave

I lean into silence,
knowing how loud
the world is slowly
turning on it's axis

I remind myself
how my mind is
a blank flag,

how my body
turns into a riot

never stopping
for anything
or anyone.
