The One for Whom You Create

We are human beings, not just human doings

Poets, lose your pens,
painters, toss your brushes in the sea,
musicians, give your instruments away,
then go for a long walk.

When you’re done,
keep walking,
notice the beauty all around you.
Do not try to remember a thing.
Breathe.

This holy moment is your poetry,
your art, your song.

Do not concern yourself with giving it form.

The one for whom you create
deeply loves what you just didn’t do.

Excerpted from “Unspoken Word: Love Longing & Letting Go.”
An Ode to Self-Improvement
