The Wild Kind of Crazy


Crazy

is the neon to the pastel,

the saffron to the pepper,

the awake to the sleeping.

 

Crazy

is the fire you want to contain in a pit,

so that you can sit around it,

and roast marshmallows.

     “It’s warm, isn’t it?”

     “Be careful, you don’t want to start a wildfire.”

 

Crazy

is the conversations you have with Solitude and Space,

that are the most honest conversations,

you’ve ever had with anyone.

 

Crazy

compassionately reminds you that you are loved,

makes you strong,

makes you soft.

 

Kindly, be crazy.
