When I pulled the spotlight on me
first it felt too bright
and then I saw things i've ignored
thinking they could be hidden in dark
the blackened corner of my heart
charred by pain
the smokey part of ribs
reeking of effort it has made over years
the blurry part of vision
some from fatigue, some from ego
the cobwebs in mind
marred with broken dreams
lethargic with woven thoughts
and I saw a soul
and a spirit
...that didn't show any sign of age
the rhythm of the heart could slow down
with the beating pace of time
but some things inside us don't get run down
they stay as is if we continue to be curious
they be …
if we can engage in a sense of wonder
about a thing called life.
