Mary Oliver, 1986

Quiet friend who has come so far, feel how your breathing makes more space around you. Let this darkness be a bell tower and you the bell. As you ring, what batters you becomes your strength. Move back and forth into the change. What is it like, such intensity of pain? If the drink is bitter, turn yourself to wine. In this uncontainable night, be the mystery at the crossroads of your senses, the meaning discovered there. And if the world has ceased to hear you, say to the silent earth: I flow. To the rushing water, speak: I am.

Let This Darkness Be A Bell Tower by Rainer Maria Rilke
from Sonnets to Orpheus II, 29
Today, for the first time as an adult, I attended a session to help me figure out long-term therapy support options for myself. I've never attended a therapy session before, just for myself. I feel heavy and drained and embarrassed and selfish. I feel hopeful and proud of myself too.

I think I like her cover here more than the original! I first stumbled across her in a Spotify shuffle, and it's been difficult finding out more info about her online. This little blurb on Facebook was the most I found.

Rainer Maria Rilke, Sonnets to Orpheus, 1922

"Let yourself ring out among the rafters / of dark belfries"
"I live my life in widening circles
that reach out across the world.
I may not complete this last one
but I give myself to it.
I circle around God, around the primordial tower.
Iβve been circling for thousands of years
and I still donβt know: am I a falcon,
a storm, or a great song?"
(Rilke, 1905)
I wish I was able to capture a better view of her! Through my binoculars, her nest looked cozily wrapped about in soft spider webs. πΈοΈ
