a moment in mindfulness

Writing in my head to drown out the exterior noise the world makes. The words pour like the rain just outside my open door allowing the feeling of the cool air to touch my skin. It comforts me to fill my evening in solitude without the need for superficial distractions. Each breath is a moment in time that reminds me I’m alive. My movements become fluid and I am fully immersed in the evening with the rumbling storms it has brought for my entertainment.

Thoughts begin to fade into nothing more than the moment I am in. All fear is gone and I know I am safe. Control no longer is antagonizing as freedom of mind has taken its place. Light is subtle as it’s soft rays bring life to shadows. Empty space feels whole providing room for energy to fill my home. Time has no urgency allowing my mind to be free to think how I feel.

As my eyes grow heavy, sleep is upon me. Falling into a place of unconsciousness temporarily, I can no longer feel the need to carry burden or pain.

Still and calm, I am here right now.
