Continuance

I write
in the aftermath 
of loss

Of choosing breath
even when
the world feels emptied 
of meaning.

Of choosing direction
even when the map 
has been burned.

Of choosing life
even when love
is no longer
held in form.

I'm smiling so much! Thank you! It's been a long journey of healing (it is an ever-going one) and writing is what helps to makes sense of things some times. I'll take high frequencies any day!
