Do not fear the
Infinite depths
Of your own ocean
Simply because the
People around you cannot
Swim.

Someone
Someone told me
The people who did these things to me are not here anymore.
They can no longer hurt me.
Why this did not occur to me before,
I do not know.
Maybe because i still hear their
Voices.
Maybe because every sense and nerve in me reacts to
Certain noises and movements as if those people are still in the same room with me;
I feel the ghost of their touch.
I am ready to let them go now;
To see them, to feel them fade
Away into nothingness.
They can no longer keep
Their
Invisible grip
Because you cannot
Imprison
Peace.
You cannot hold love captive.
I am no longer fear,
I am love
And love is free.

Fly Away
I am brave.
I welcome my fears
and call them friends.
I invite them in
and they learn to love me as well;
they help me build my wings.
They make them stronger
and they too learn to fly away
free.

Without Fear
You are afraid of the way she leaves you
Reeling.
She can feel you.
See more than your skin.
Parts of you not one single heart has
Seen.
Or held.
No questions
Or explanations.
Just being.
You move to her without resistance
For there is none left,
Not even in your darkest parts.
The voices have hushed.
She has penetrated and annihilated the threat
For she is audacious.
Reached into them with her unspoken light
And held each one to her soul.
Singing them to sleep
Without destroying herself.
Now look.
Without fear there is only
Love.

More Than A Tear
I shed a tear today.
For all the years
I lived
And
Loved
In fear.
And I forgave myself for the mistakes
I made.
For the feelings I kept
Trapped
In
My
Throat.
For the times I gave too much
Of
Me.
I allowed myself,
To
Love
Me
For every little moment
That I had traded bits of my soul
To
Keep
The
Peace.
Truth be told,
I
Shed
More than
A
Tear.

Intoxicating
To feel your pulse upon my skin
Would surely drive me
Mad.
In an
Intoxicatingly
Beautiful way
To be certain.
To be so close.
To become the air of one
Would be the beginning
Of
Dreams.
And the end of
Fear.

In Your Head
Some things are meant to be.
They just are.
Stop your fretting.
You’re letting your worries get in
Your way.
A stone wall you have built in front of the gate.
It’s all in your head.
You keep yourself trapped inside
Where it’s warm and safe.
I see that it’s living you fear,
My dear.
You have created an illusion
In which there is not a pathway to your happiness.

Sweet Love
Sweet,
Wild
Love.
I have known you before.
I have seen your face.
I have felt your fear.
I have held your hand.
I have kissed your tears.
