I wish meditation works
I wish meditation works
By JFarrell
Trust me,
Today I so wish mindfulness meditation actually works;
Let my thoughts come and go
Without judgement
Without holding on,
Without clinging to them.
Every thought, every breath screams
“Need alcohol!”
Waking to my cats vomiting;
Four days waiting on a so-called friend,
To get in touch with me,
After spending time I haven’t got
Doing him a favour.
Just wish,
I could close my eyes,
Take a deep breath
And let it out.
Especially the anger,
The nuclear rage I am feeling.
I’ve tried,
But, every thought, every breath
Just feeds the nuclear reaction.
And I know there is more to mindfulness,
But thinking, without judgement is central
To how it works,
And I can’t achieve that.
If it wasn’t for my love’s smile,
Engraved upon my heart, my mind,
I would be totally lost at sea.
She is my anchor,
My salvation.
You know who you are,
I love you, absolutely.
