Quarantine

It stops you on your path and entangles you in its embrace.
It makes you wonder what you have been doing all this time.
It recoils you into a new experience leaving you questioning your abilities.
It transforms you into a bud, giving you another opportunity to blossom, to approach it differently somehow.
So I grab hold of this time and try to make sense of it, to slow down, to think.
It is you I have been waiting for my heart tells me.
The time alone will send me into a million thoughts and I will take my time with them, not allowing them to judge too severely.
I will forgive myself and trust that my wisdom is guiding me through.
There is light and there is sadness.
Both need to be acknowledged.
I’ve committed to this moment to shed my skin, I’ve been heading this way, I know that now.
Wait for me I shout, I can only give you my heart, I whisper, that is all I know.
