There is no name for that feeling

There is no name for that feeling.
For that feeling of no longer becoming infuriated
by something that used to light you with rage;
That used to steal your breath
That used to be very close to you
That used to consume you
Energetically, physically, emotionally,
But now you can laugh with it.
What could they possibly call that?
Distance?
Contentment?
Lightness?
Forward-looking?
Touching God?
There is no name for that feeling,
for words don't suffice in place of
honest feeling.
Don't let the sun go down on your anger.
There is nothing in a void
which cannot be destroyed.
