you caught me again
the intricate web unseen
smooth cuts kept in stone

.[Ramadan Kareem].

sneaking up on me i had no choice
but to jump right in
i anxiously await that feeling from a year ago
it didnt hit me until it hit me
a rapid punch to the gut
emptiness is finally inside
weakness in my hands
tick-tocking adjustments to get acclimated
the staggering first steps to move on a path
feelings i thankfully wait a year to experience
and i think to myself
~this is nothing compared to~
and i carry on, focused more than before
eventually even the score against time

Ramadan has begun and i am going to be starting my 3rd day of fasting
much more than simply depriving myself of food and water for 14 hours
i am making this month a time really home in on myself
as well get a glimpse, just a small minuscule taste,
of the horrific lives some individuals are battling through elsewhere

a cleansing of the mind&body&heart

some things i am giving up for this month:
Sodas
Cursing
Junk Foods
Drinking
Smoking

some things i am consciously working on during this month:
Patience
Empathy
Forgiveness
Honesty
Responsibility
Selflessness
Love

my focus is on this.


i may not be a believer in religion
but Ramadan is something i will keep sacred and use every year
to feel for others
and keep true to myself
i am happy to say it is just the beginning

stuck.
i rest stiffly
water swishing
shaping and shifting
chizling and lifting my head above ground

forget understand
you can not comprehend
i maybe just a head
behind many but still ahead
waiting for my body to finally move me
push me
where my mind has endlessly gone
to these thoughts that effortlessly flown
while these roots endured when grown

it pains me to think of the time left
but i am happy to be a head
behind many but nevertheless ahead
and until that gentle water completes its creation
besting the rest of me, i will rest stiffly
listening to the wind whistling
until i can walk to my own rock tune
