Many Times

How many times did I breathe in today and not notice?
How many times did my heart beat and I did not notice?
How many times did I blink?
How many times did I lose sight of something else when I finally remembered to notice?
You, who is in every heartbeat and every breath and every movement I make, I’m sorry.
I try and I plead to get closer to you, but you are already here, waiting for me.
If only I would pay attention.

Open Sesame.
