Breathe in then out
Grounding myself in the moment
The spark threatening to lift me
Breathe in and out
Calming, stabilizing, focusing
Soon the spark can take control
Not yet.
Breathe in then out
Waiting impatiently to soar
Suddenly I’m alive and filled with energy
I can feel the spark in my blood
Giving me a moment of clarity,
Of perfection
Strong, slow, confident
Then it’s gone
Just as fast as it arrived
Out like a light
They say lightning never strikes twice
But it does
I already know it will be back
But I still miss it
Until it returns
I steady my hands
And breathe
In and out
