Doing and Stopping

Doing nothing feels good
Not the kind of nothing
Where you've left it all undone
And it's still there
Waiting, lurking
Calling you
This is different
It's the gift you give yourself
When you've taken care of it
When you feel good
Because those things
Are a part of your life
And there is joy
Almost a meditative quality
In your actions
And now
This is the kind of nothing
That feels amazing
Because you can sit quietly
And just be
A break, a natural flow
In the doing
And the stopping
That feeds the soul
