The Hour We Left Unscheduled

🕊️ A poem about untethering from urgency and reclaiming soft time

The Snap We Didn’t Hear

An image of a person sitting alone on a window seat, looking out at a soft, cloudy sky. Their hands are resting in a position of complete relaxation, emphasizing a feeling of peace, quiet, and disconnection.

The World Spun Without Us

And nothing shattered. The sky held, the bills still slept upon the counter. The world, convinced we owed it speed, spun on without our anxious hurry.

Becoming the Lifted Anchor

We learned to be the anchor lifted, a small boat drifting on its name, with only wind for destination. No longitude, no urgent bearing, just sun that warmed the quiet deck.

The Unspooling of Must

This hour, it is a blank receipt, a word our calendar forgot. We let the threads of must unspool, not into chaos, but clean silk. The greatest freedom we can claim is simply the one we do not schedule.
