Every single place you’ve placed me, I’ve loved.

Color Palette | from Fall 2025

Sadness and spark

You’ve placed me in landscapes where light shines intricately through trees

Branches are art

The nights I can remember

They are wrapped in a mystery

Silence, stillness, intoxicated surrender

I’m never sober for these experiences

The body is poisoned and full

Why do you deliver these gifts …

When am I disconnected from you?

Now and again, I return

Not missing a sound

Reflections on the day

My Essence is still strong and sound

I’m entering a new life, a new posture, a new voice

Still pulled in tangles with a living an old life

Stagnant in change and strangled for a voice

Like a child still misunderstood

To comprehend, I must be present, still…. and full-hearted

I left you for a while… I’m still distant, but I promise I’m near

Bring me closer to you, God,

Show me signs

Disprove my fears

Letting me go of addictions, skewed perceptions, and skeptical assumptions

I mean no harm

Only to myself

Free me from the addiction

Of Ego and nobody else
