The average lifespan of a housefly
Is 40 to 50 days
And I am merely sitting here idly watching
Them move about my window.
I
Wonder if they would prefer to be outside.
With every blink of my eyes
Time moves faster for the fly than I.

Do not assume
A soul has been shown too much kindness,
For anyone you meet may have gone days,
Weeks or years without a kindness offered.
Some a lifetime without.
Each of us have the ability and choice in every moment, every breath to be this;
Love.
Now continue to create and give untethered for
This love is limitless.
There are days
A nod
And a small smile from a stranger
In passing
Have rescued her.
A moment noticed.
They move on
And the planet keeps spinning,
These are the days.
You hear it said again and again
And ignore the wisdom.
You cannot shake everything you think is Wrong and carry it.
Carry it on and on.
And the days go.
Change your mind,
Change your heart.
Your view will start to morph,
For these are the days.
Then they are gone,
You are gone.
Do not let anyone fool you.
We are all fumbling,
Learning as we go
Moment by moment.
For not one of us have
Lived these days before.
Many hours
Even music cannot fill the darkness.
So in silence I sit,
In silence
I am full.
Many days my heart is too heavy,
My sight barricades itself
I have not the strength to lift
My
Pen and place it to paper
Or my eyes to sunlight.
I sit in darkness.
In darkness I rest.
And I sink
Beyond my knees to earth.
Beyond touch of hand
Or restless thoughts
Where I lie.
For I do not even whisper there,
I do not not even cry.
I disappear.
Sometimes for days.
Sometimes for weeks.
It is a silent departure
Unnoticed but by me.
For it is a part of me you cannot see.
My heart.
This heart takes leave of my
Mind
For they struggle so
To agree
And sometimes one just has to go.
