Indelible

Lightly Go Forth

By Shareese AouadPublished 5 months ago 1 min read
Lightness of Being

The necessity of breaking through to clarity against all cost

has sustained me

For I have not the fortitude otherwise

Time is not my friend and neither is it yours

We all fight against it

sometimes weakly and sometimes valiantly

But we fight nonetheless

Lightness of being enables me and yes us

to see what is worth existing for

Force does not necessarily equal strength

The lightness of delicate wisdom

Can indeed win the hearts of man

It is cultivated through time and humility

And thus soothes its inhabitant

to the point of sublime tranquility

if thus we allow it
