Exhale, Relax
Just messing around
Playing with life
Changing it up,
Tired of the strife
The treadmill grind,
Watery sameness of
Everyday; slogging through blind
But trynna be chill
Get back my flow
How to be zen?
Don’t even know
In my new sneaks
I run down the street
Get side-eye looks
On to a yoga swing
But don’t have any hooks
Living with ‘loved ones’
Who don’t know me well
Who question my motives
Scoff at my plunge
into sand gardens,
Meditation,
deep breathing,
What gives?
No more mere existing
I’m living this life
Developing, dynamic
I’m in this moment
Instead of resisting
Come take my hand
Feel what I feel
A deep breath in
Exhale, relax
