More Than Yourself

-------More Than Yourself-------

If only you would let the moonlight in,
you might hear the sound of the waves again,
or feel the gentle pull of the Earth
spinning.

But worry tempts the heart to forget
that you are much, 
much more 
than just yourself.

A shifting vision in the clouds.
One among many stars
shining 
like an opal stone in the infinite darkness.

Before anyone could show you different
you used your own eyes to see,
and everything was a strange, and edgeless 
and beautiful dream.

Remember, Dear One,
how the full moon loves.
And let its tides hold you
in the belly of the sea.
