Ease and bliss was given to me for a day. I was able to breathe the way you do. I was able to sleep with my hands open, not clenched under my pillow. My thoughts didn’t have alternate endings. My thoughts weren’t forced into the numerous bad situations that loom over me like hands on my throat. For a day, I was able to see clearly, like a child amazed by blue sky. The warmth of the bearing sun was enlightenment. The hum of the bees soothed me instead of causing me to run against the wind. Every morning since, I’ve longed for this day. Visit me again. Bring me your peace. I want to breathe the way you do. Ease and bliss was given to me for a day.
