I am exploding
Every piece of me is on edge ready to take flight
With my arms held wide I let the skin of my face up to the sky
It leaves me for the great beyond
My hands lower to the cool, damp earth
They sink away into the soil
My eyes spot the forest off in the distance
They leap from their home in search of fairy tale adventures
My feet find purchase on the gravel of a nearby road
They run...forever
My hips stumble upon the soft, soft sands of the beach
With sea spray misting all, they shake to the beat of the earth
All but one piece have gone, left for greater things
My heart, at first reluctant, floats to another
It will be safe there, protected
I am at home now.
Everywhere.
Love.
