Brave

Standard

The bravest thing i ever did

Was to

Return home and

Confront

My fear and pain.

Oh the nightmares. The anxiety and dizziness

From holding my breath all this time.

I believed I had left it there in darkened places

(That fear)

But truly

I had been carrying it;

Wearing it.

I placed forgiveness

There;

Home.

And in return

Was immersed in love.

And I felt lighter and I flew higher than ever before.

On to living a fuller life.

On to letting go of more of this and that I have picked up along the way.

The power was mine all along.

The power is mine.

They Too

Standard

I used to run and hide when people hurt me.

I gave away my power without a second thought.

I used to give them my tears and time.

I am learning to turn around

Gently.

To forgive and honor the soul of each heart and mind.

To give more tears and time

To joy.

To see beauty in both dreams and reality.

I am learning they too are afraid,

They just show it in a different way.

More Than A Tear

Standard

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.

Hanging

Standard

What does hanging on to
Hate and anger serve?
Only the darkness.
Only the destruction of self.
The weight of the darkness will only
Burden you
And keep you suspended
In continual unrest.

It will trap you.

Hate and anger only serve themselves

And will find extreme satisfaction

 In your

Perpetual
Inner mayhem.

Walk in love, compassion and forgiveness.

It is the only way to move forward.
