The Noise
In the noise
that pervades every cell, humming in every molecule, deafening every other thought, quieting my creativity, my needs, my wants…
there is purpose and fulfilment.
But sometimes, I must silence it,
if only for a few moments,
and reconnect with my true self.
Give her time to feel.
Give her time to aspire.
Give her time to believe in change, and to create.
In the quietude,
my pulse slows to a trot,
and my heart allows itself to feel again,
I cherish these moments…
and I dread them.
