With a deep inhale of fresh paper,
I exhale the last two weeks
i scan the room, find the familiar signs, the wall of titles float like wallpaper stands in front of me and my eyes are fingers tracing the bindings,
I am finally still, present, no endless to-do lists, no thoughts, plans,
Just me, the books, and my eyes.

I sit alone watching each sun ray cut through the window to get to my skin, Waiting Light at last Darkness just a memory Parts
