Is this me or is this the voice of my parents in my head

Is this the passing planets or phases of the moon

Is this my own mental madness or just being human

Life’s uncertainties are ever-present.

I so easily slip into expectation and judgement.

So tangled up again, so out of breath.

I will let the unanswerable questions-

Remain unanswered.

I will breathe nature and sky, birdsong and music.

I will find a spot to be alone, until I can love humanity again-

Even myself.

I will be grateful for the miracle of breathing,

The miracle of the moment, and the miracle of us.
