listening

I was asked what is the single, most impactful, moment
of my life.

I reflected back on

decisions I made
people I met
conversations I had.

when I shifted
from my head
to my heart

to answer this question.

in the stillness I listened and was given the answer.

it was that morning

after I stumbled home
when I looked in the mirror
and I heard you say

"I don't want to die..."

it was in that moment
when I chose you.

when I chose us.
