Awaswas land — Santa Cruz, CA, USA — 2021

I came back to you today. I’ve missed you. I almost forgot your strength. I almost forgot your depth. I almost forgot how cold you feel.

I felt guilty for not being in touch with the joy. Will you let me back in your container?

I glide against your caress. I float with you. I fly with you. What kept me away from you?

Thank you for always being here. Thank you for always showing up — and being vulnerable. You tell me how you’re doing each day and I try my best to listen. I promise to show up for you.
