Beginning - The Light Within
A story about starting again
There are days when the world sounds too loud
When everything pulls at me until I can hardly hear myself
I run I rule I react
And somewhere along the way I lose what is essential
The soft whisper of my soul
Then I long for a border
A thin but sacred shell
That doesn't trap me but protects me
In which I don't have to do anything
Except breathing
There in that safe nothingness
A new beginning is born
Not big or loud but quiet
A return to the light within me
A reminder of who I am
Before the world called me
In that moment everything starts again
Not outside me but from within
An inner sunrise
A birth of light
And only when I have nourished that
Can I step out again
Not as a reaction but as a choice
Not as duty but as radiation
Because that is where it always starts
Within me
