Welcome to your existence
To the truth that you are alive, to breath passing through you, like a stream through the wood, seeping life
So don’t fall asleep, don’t yawn and play dead – I know, but I’ve seen it
For it’s quite a thing, this being alive
Like music you must dance to, or someone you must love, a strange commitment
Though ripped apart at times and uncertain as hell
We’re a long way from Eden, this existence, it can get messy
Yet here you are, alive and heavenly, dusting off the damage, a bloody marvel, it’s a miracle, you’re a miracle
(These are facts not hyperbole)
As the planet tilts in endless space, here is your stage, you’re in the script (you don’t get to see) and cues and plot lines may alter
Life is change
But you exist! Alive for now, the pulse of life beats quiet and strong in hopeful breath and fragile wonder
You exist
All else is for another day
