Elements of Will

by Slowdive

(Listen to Falling Ashes by Slowdive to enhance your reading pleasure.)

The vision of water restores fluidity, while thoughts swim into my mind.

I hope to come alive in the next moment, like something being born.

I’ve been granted a beginning breath, as I choke on the air.

I retract my focus from all that I cannot control, as my physical value lessens.

My days feel sobering, as each one passes without fault.

My lifetime trims in length, while my wings expand.

I bond with the Grace of Silence, as I have felt contained by a World of Noise.

Be well.
