receiving
once my heart learnt to see
what my wounds had obscured
what my shadow kept from me
the mundane revealed its beauty
the boring transformed into creativity
the bleak restored its colours
loneliness turned into appreciated solitude
opposites and discomfort inspired change
simplicity freed up energy
the impossible gave way to opportunities
curiosity awakened new desires
and little gestures spoke of love
what I gave freely
and unattached to outcome
returned to nourish and warm my being
