Surrender

 In the darkest hour

we lean toward the light

In the darkest hour

We fold into fetal position

waiting for a reason to unfurl

When we finally do

we look around

For what has changed

What has remained

looking to the left

looking to the right

searching above

searching below

You are nowhere near

the last place you landed

what is left but

Surrender

what to do but 

Give in 

Give your body, mind, soul

to the fertile soil

to the glittering distant stars

Draw that star energy

into your self

Give yourself to the moon

to the Sun

to the planets of your choosing

They await your return

just as you have longed

for them.
