NEWBORN

Be tender with yourself
Reach for the moment
Carefully
As if you really cared
As if you were newborn
Here, now
Just out

Be soft in this light
Be soft in this moment
This is your moment
This is your skin
Your new eyes
Your new ears
Your new precious life

Be still in this moment
Be the listener
The ears of the moment

Your eyes are full and empty at
The same time
Ready to be charged
To be breath and light in the dark

Hold this new station
Come back
Make this your home
Make this life your home
