The Way Will Find You

The Way Will Find You

Stop fighting.
Aren’t you tired?

Tired of holding it all together,
of forcing your way forward,
of pretending you’re not lost.

You don’t have to figure it out.
You don’t have to hold up the sky.

Just be still.
And listen.

That ache in your heart,
the longing,
the flicker of fear and hope–

it’s proof your heart is still wild.

It’s okay to be lost.
You don’t have to find the way.

The way will find you.
