sudden lifting of a heavy stone off
fresh air too long avoided
like breaking through a water surface
challenged too long to hold a breath
too many words are engraved wrongly
now to polish them off
and write new ones
lightfooted on more days
can't be carrying too much
starting is easy
carrying on is not
be lightfooted and carry little
there are changes to make
there is this surprising lightness of being i can't explain. i keep picturing the scene from grey's anatomy's season 3 finale where burke walks out on christina on their wedding day after realizing he was inadvertently forcing her into it and she comes back to their apartment realizing he is gone and she tears of her wedding dress because she can no longer breath because her wedding dress is choking her... like everything was bearing down on her until that moment. she is crying but she is finally free. different scenario and you have to watch it to understand but it feels like i tore off a wedding dress today.
a night and a day. i am free. let's see how long that lasts
