You In Me

 

At night, you come into my dreams, inviting me to share a meal with you. This delights me, yet I watch you—quiet and powerless—as you hurl the stones of your inner conflicts with immense vehemence…

By day, even when I feel strong, I carry your unease within me: that cough betraying your sadness and your struggle to communicate… and sometimes, that stomachache—like a guilty past you cannot digest, cannot forgive yourself for…

I long to share with you, this joy and childlike carefree spirit that now forms the skeleton of my being… The happiness of plunging my hands into the garden soil, giving and nurturing life. The pleasure of cooking and savoring what I've grown. These conversations filled with smiles and laughter among friends. These words, shapes, and colors I bring to life day by day—blazing suns that light up my world…

I wish to brighten your night.

Forgive yourself, love yourself… and let us meet again!...
