I Am Ready
- The lightening is overhead cutting through the clouds that hang heavy, dropping rain faster than the thunder can rumble.
- Crack open, I beg, for I am ready to be released, to release myself.
- Everything is blowing now, the air cooler,
- More inviting.
- I breathe in.
- Something in me is shifting, has shifted.
- My feet are on the ground.
- It is torrent.
- It is mercy.
- It is pouring down.
- Everyone of us is thirsty.
- We have waited so long,
- Grown dry and drier still
- Until now.
- How I bore knowing nothing is promised
- Became prayer.
- Became acceptance.
- Became agency and willingness
- To act, to do nothing,
- To let go.
