In the middle of the chaos that typifies normality
A sudden moment, where assumed silence had suddenly changed
The sound of seagulls, bugs and chirping birds
I opened my eyes and looked around
The mist of an early morning mellowed the rays of the sun
I looked around, and saw life.
I closed my mind, and heard life.
The sounds that we choose to ignore, but that mean the world to some
The gifts, the moment, the instant relief of hope
All of those were there, and I forgot who I was.
Just like an unexpected happy moment, I sharpened my senses
I smiled, and life smiled back at me.
Just as the sound of the engine of my car died,
And the voices of the radio faded in the back of my head
I heard the sound of beauty, surrounding my nature,
subliming the core of my heart to its delighting.
I felt love, and without warning, a tear came down my cheek
I came back, forgiven and redeemed.
