Rested


Is it wrong to feel better?

Is it wrong to feel lighter?

Is it wrong to feel free?

Yes.


So the guilt seeps in, just a little

through the cracks in my resolve

under the door to my stone heart

And I miss you, but just a bit.


Not the silence, not the rejection

not the distance, not the control

not the cowardice, not the judgement

not the disdain, not the mistrust.


But


Yes to the tender, yes to the grin

Yes to the insight, yes to the wisdom

Yes to the ridiculous, Yes to the inane

Yes to the chest, yes to the kiss.


A small sigh is allowed before continuing with the day.
