What I Carry

Too heavy.
Too fast.
Too much.
Again.

I keep reaching.
I keep carrying.
I think…
It's mine.

What I carry
Shapes my way.
How I answer
Shapes who I become.

Little by little…
I become true.

I notice.
I pause.
I listen.
Inside.

An old echo.
A new choice.
I stay.
With me.

What I carry
Shapes my way.
How I answer
Shapes who I become.

Little by little…
I become true.

I carry
What is mine.
I return
What is not.

Quietly.
Carefully.
Faithfully.
Free.

What I carry
Shapes my way.
How I answer
Shapes who I become.

Truth grows.
Trust grows.
Value grows.

Little by little…
I become true.
