Expansive

Eyelids peel away
Pupils enlarge
Neural synapses open

Air slips in my veins
Blood stream widens
Each cell breathes new energy

My heart beats faster
More expansive
Yet focused on what matters

Well-developed thoughts
Faster in time
Contemplative in nature

Well-being laced
I’m euphoric
With eternal unrest eased

Here, the time flows less agonizingly
With my increased engagement across life
And feelings of invincibility
I even feel an urge for connection…
Feel excitement for the mystery…
Excitement for the opportunities…

I’m excited again
