small
very small
holding in
energy still, not wishing to expend
or expand
wanting to be
just be
not do, not think, not figure it out, not plan
just be
contracting my energetic circle
to include just a few
just those whom
i trust
who
have been with me
through it all
and will be through it all to come
great spirit willing
so lucky am i
to have met you
showing me other ways
than those with which i was conditioned
what is the point to life other
than our spirit's evolution?
than our soul's satisfaction?
is that to be found in cultural ideas of success and meaning?
must we conform to being worthy,
through ego enriching feats of accomplishment?
there is a vast universe that exists
beyond the fickle constructs of humans
we are trapped in mental fictions,
a very small and limiting collectively agreed-upon reality
being told it is all there is, we know no better
and diminish our potential to meet those parameters
stepping outside of delineated borders
is a process, continual,
needing attention
and intention
stepping outside of the prescribed realm
leaves one exposed
(but free)
and so i draw my own energetic circle
of being, which protects me
while also connects me
to the unlimited infinite of the universe
the true potential
