When you feel lost

IF you feel lost

maybe it helps to realize

that it’s just a story

the mind is all over the place

looking for connection

for solid ground

for meaning

for control

or for you

and all the while

in the background

looking silently, gently over your shoulder

with nothing to prove or to protect

there is you already

 

The You that doesn’t even need

connection

solid ground

meaning

or control

because it is already everything

and can never be lost

except in a story

 

Maybe it helps to realize

that you are here

and not lost

because you can read this

you can know this

you are alive

and that is You

 

Hello You!
