To stretch yourself thin
So that the make it alright stories
That you told yourself will still fit
Or to sit there naked and let it all fall away
Sitting on the edge of the bed
With your crazy morning medusa hair
Knees scrunched up to your chest
Absently playing with your own toes
The sounds of the world waking up
The fears stand close by
Holding hands with complacency
Awaiting your embrace
Smiling, you stand
There is only one choice
You can't go back to sleep now
Nor do you want to
Indeed, you have changed shape
Sweet freedom, deepest strength
Connection with All
Born of facing, accepting and feeling
Everything
Each day a new creation
Re-membering all that you are
Called from the four winds
Returned to you
Fire within again
Once almost gone
Tended by winged protector and brother
Until you accepted it back
Now burning brightly
The power of Light within
Your own wings
Fully unfurled
Aware, awake, alive
As the day begins
You pull on pajamas from the floor
Over still sleep warm skin
Thoughts of coffee and family greetings
What will the day bring
The path could lead anywhere
You don't know what will happen next
Yet
Complete certainty
In perfect love and perfect trust
You greet the day
Smiling
