Sunday Morning Enlightenment

The sun shines through the window in a way that is blinding.
Warmth from the closed off house brings comfort.
I lay on my couch with a mind ever-winding,
each thought wrapping around each other.
Attaining limitlessness is all new territory
with possibilities never-ending
adjusting to the vastness of everything and nothing
grasping concepts difficult to recognize in the first place
stretching boundaries in my mind
the limits we have are just delusions, fake
but real for us til we get a glimpse of truth and bask in the glory of being cured, no longer blind
it’s invigorating, causing the passion within me to come to the brink of exploding, testing my physical form
and then fear, a familiar friend just recently broken up with, greets me again
fear of the unknown,
or maybe fear arises because there are no rationalizations to the fear that I feel
fear is not logical, but it is real
And the mind has enough capacity to be non-discriminatory
to hold enlightenment as well as fear
glory and wretchedness
just as the very planet we inhabit wakes up to light and drifts off to darkness
we are versatile, adaptable, so much more than we can even fathom
for to see the light among darkness would deny the darkness
and to notice the dark within the light denies the light
but to give room for each one in its own time
that, that is the beauty of balance...
still sitting on my couch, my body unmoved
but fulfilled nonetheless by the journey taken in mind, reaching my soul
and now I come back to the world and realize
it has just as many possibilities, and in order to appreciate them in full
I must move, then decide.
