Hush

 

Stop talking long enough
to let the silence guide you down
all the way to the deep core
of who you are

Stop crying long enough
to let the gentle hand take yours,
and let the all powerful embrace
hold you completely still

The stillness goes ever inward  -
it plumbs the internal infinity,
it finds the radiation
that burns through every fear,
releasing all the brightness
of you.
