To My Acceptance

I was waiting

here.

But not anymore.

I will

not.

Because as

I woke

up 

out of a deep

hibernate

state

I feel alive.

The tingling

in my

arms

and feet

make

me giggle. 

Smiling 

I let my

feet 

dangle

off the side

of the

mountain

side.

The red 

clay

lights

up

around

me and reminds

me of

who I am,

why I am.

I no longer need

to be up 

here

waiting.

The Sun

will guide

me and 

the scent

of the 

desert 

will get me

where 

I need to be.

To my

acceptance.
