Step Into the Light

The day begins like any other day

Yet, I am still captivated by the way the sun hugs the land gently in the mornings.

It's blanket, made up of many different hues.

It envelops almost everything and I am no exception.

Try as I might, to hide in the shade

To find comfort in the dark

Happen upon solace and peace in the places the light cannot reach

I try to stay there, because it is all too often easier to do so

But, this soul of mine is relentless in it's pursuit of evolution

It so badly wants to grow, it wants me to step into the light

Like the tree basking in the sun, growing tall and strong and majestic

My soul would like to join in the process of photosynthesis

Convert that sunlight to positive energy

Take a step further into the light

And finally, on this day like any other

Begin to grow again.
