while you were keeping everything together<\/p>\n\n\n\n
when my heart went quiet
the only thing that stayed was underneath me<\/p>\n\n\n\n
not leaves or wind
just the feeling of deep roots
holding the dark earth together<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and somewhere inside that silence
a knowing<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the trees were still keeping the world
so i didn\u2019t have to<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and it was enough
to follow the roots
back up into breath<\/p>\n\n\n\n
