A fine stillness overtakes me Balanced on the edge of a knife. Emotional upheaval, Physical longing, Psychological unrest. These are all fleeting things. Moments. Like a seed, Hanging in the breeze. Momentary bewilderment, At being set free. Then falling, Gut wrenching, Traumatic, Exhilarating, Joyful. These things last but a second. Stress, Pain, Joy, Sorrow. Fight through it and you'll see. Stillness.

A Fine Stillness
A fine stillness overtakes me Balanced on the edge of a knife. Emotional upheaval, Physical longing, Psychological unrest. These are all fleeting things. Moments. Like a seed, Hanging in the breeze. Momentary bewilderment, At being set free. Then falling, Gut wrenching, Traumatic, Exhilarating, Joyful. These things last but a second. Stress, Pain, Joy, Sorrow. Fight through it and you'll see. Stillness.
