Newborn again

state of mind on my way home

My current state of mind can be compared to being in the water:

Lukewarm, calm water,

the sun shining gently,

and I’m enjoying it.

I swim and don’t yet know

where I will end up.

I am not afraid. I trust.

There is no hurry to get anywhere,

since no one is waiting for me.

I have no expectations,

and I’m not looking for anything anymore.

I go deep into the water and let go of my past.

The water covers every cell of my body; God washes me clean.

I am forgetting myself.

I am fulfilled and at peace right where I am.

The water flows softly.

My eyes are closed, and I think of nothing.

I feel. The future will be great.

Until now, my verses had voice only in my notepad, but now you may read it along.

I love to create my own metaphors because it allows me to express my deep feelings more effectively.
