The
Awakening

The water sleeps in the arms of the mountains — calm, deep turquoise, holding the color of silence. Yet beneath the surface, something moves.

Chapter II — Water, Instinct, Inner Awakening

The water sleeps in the arms of the mountains,
calm, deep turquoise — holding the color of silence.
Yet beneath the surface, something moves —
a secret, a quiet whisper, an awakening.

The air thickens, heavy and moist,
as if the world itself were holding its breath.
The wind arrives with a question —
one I can feel, but not yet understand.

I feel something ancient waking,
something I've always known,
but never truly listened to.
Everything speaks to me, softly,
in the language of air, of stone, of moss.

Not in words, but in the flow of life,
reminding what lies inside me.
The world expands before me, in every direction.
I feel its pulse — slow and ancient,
as it flows through stone and air,
and softly through me.

I let go of everything I carry,
and step into what I cannot name.
Is this awakening? I don't know,
only that I'm already on my way.

Maybe the world was never asleep.
Maybe I was the one who forgot to listen.
