Ever laid outside, still?
Staring at an empty sky..
Ever fixed your gaze,
at nothing but a single star?
Feeling the tender breeze
warping you up with silence..
And you grow big; You grow tall..
Getting too close to a single star..
Giving yourself away
to a silent moonless night..
Full of air.. Full of life..
And you start floating in empty space..
Flying like a butterfly……. No..
More like a huge hot air balloon..!
Driven with the warm flame inside of you..
Carried by the cool soft waves of air..
You grow big with every blow of wind; With every inhalation..
Ever felt like flying?
Moving up so high?
Lifted by an inverted gravity of heavens..
Slowly drowning into the sky..
Ever felt sedated and light?
Ever felt free, in no need to fight?
Out of mind, out of sight..
Out of earth, out of light..
Nothing but you and the darkness of night..
The limitless sky and a single starlight..
Ever opened up?
Letting the whole world in?
Growing bigger and lighter..
Letting in your loved ones and haters..
All your wounds and your scars..
All the joyful reasons to smile..
The good and the bad.. Happy and the sad..
All the fears and happiness tears..
Heaven and hell, and all that’s in-between..
Just let it all in..
Let them impulse you and grow you big..
Ever felt full…. But light?
Growing bigger, but younger..?
Taller than the mountains..
Wider than the oceans..
Higher than the highest you have ever reached..
Sublimate into a white transparent cloud..
Cover the sky along the horizon..
Above everything and everyone..
Above the little weak helpless you..
For You are no longer You..
You and the universe have become one..!
Have you ever let go?
Surrender.. Peacefully.. Willingly.. And let go..
Expand… Explode to tiny grains,
and rain down on the world..
Like fairies dust.. Glow and sparkle..
Fill the atmosphere with sweet magic..
Let go…
And let the wind spread you around..
Let it spatter you upon the hills and fields..
The deserts and seas..
On a playful child skin, and a shy young lady’s hair..
On the high held noses of the reckless youth,
And the wrinkled palms of the olds..
Let go…
And rain down on the restless you..
Fall down softly back to your skin..
Back to your limited small and still body..
Let go…
And let the wind that carried you away once,
let it now lay you back outside..
Under the empty sky,
watched by a single star..
