When I was ready; when I had had enough,
I began to dig deep and face some memories I had tried not to keep. Some parts of me had been in hiding or dressed in disguise;
Pretending to be invisible.
It took longer than I thought it might.
I had to hold myself accountable for my own part and went back to the start.
I did not realize how far away from myself I was
Until I started retracing the steps back to myself.
Healing.
It starts with one mind.
It starts with one heart.
To become love
And let go of anger.
And there the one shares with
Another.
Let go of judgements of strangers.
Then the two become the four
And exponentially
We let go.
Embrace anew
As love recognizes hate
No more.
Alter the tide.
What becomes reality for one
Becomes the reality
For
The Sum.
….
Let not your eyes deceive you
As you look in the mirror.
The blood that we shed
Is no other color
But red.
