Lightness

amazing how when things seem so low
the sun rises
warms your heart
and lights up the darkness
banishing it for now

Today I salute the light
I'm ready for the next challenge
Because it is like the sun has shone in the darkest corners

I have found my old self
and it never needed much work

I will not ask why it took so long
I'll just enjoy the light
This lightness in my step
I cannot be encumbered with the old
Rather I choose today to embrace this new weightlessness
