I'm not surprised

Slowing down is
Not what I do

Often

Stopping is not
In my nature

Completely

But when
I do

Sometimes

Under
The right conditions

Surprisingly

It's
Good

Really good

When all I hear
Is rain

Tapping on a gutter

All that is see
Is Foliage

I feel

Truly
Feel

Myself

Not
The facade

As much

Not
The pain

So intensely

It's
Comfort

Somehow

Rising
Up

Knowingly

It's been there
All along

Waiting

For
Me

To aknowlede
It

Completely

I'm not
Really surprised

Just impressed
