~Changes~Original Poems from Meditation #7

in poetry •  8 years ago  (edited)

Changes in my mind
Everything feels different now
I'm slowing down time

How did I lose it
My conscious breathing movement
Center translucent

Pleasure over joy
Pushed my balance wanting more
Thought I may explore

Then changes arose
Forgetting to reassess
Old feelings took hold

Forgiving myself
I set out to keep my flame
Forever glowing

A virtue indeed
To have balance in this sea
Life can get wobbly

Like the autumn leaves
I'm graciously embracing
Changes within me

I wrote this poem in that little Zen House in my friend's backyard in Asheville, North Carolina. A very refreshing change of pace after an awesome, yet intense weekend in Charleston.
