Simply Be

We're all thinking about tomorrow. 

We're crossing things off our list.

We're looking towards the finish line. We've forgotten where to find our bliss.

But what about this moment,

that's here?

Why do we avoid it?

We're counting this 

and subtracting that,

when we could simply be 

and rejoice it.

There's nothing else to catch. 

We have to let go 

and unattach. 

We have to let go 

and humbly embrace,

all that's in us 

and all that's around us. 

All that would drown us

and  everything that grounds us.
