Stay

Written by Alicia Bloom

And all of a sudden, she realised that everything she craved, she already had living within her spirit.

An overflowing, uncontainable fountain of love; a strong yet gentle, warm, low hum sang soothing songs to her whether she was surrounded or completely alone.

The ground no longer felt wobbly, and she no longer wanted to disappear into the ether.

Instead she dug her delicate gait deep into the earth and blew kisses to glow worms as she, instead of running, decided to stay, at least for this lifetime.
