To long To deeply long Can be an unbearable sensation Like an itch, you can't scratch Making you want to crawl out of your skin
By Colleen Kelly6 years ago in Poets
Your worth is not something that can be earned, Or taken. It doesn’t depend on your perceived beauty. It isn’t defined by the dollars in your bank account.
We are called to be bold, Even when we are unsure. To take risks, Even when we are shaking with fear, Weighed down with doubt.
I love my shadow My darker side The part of me that screws up The part of me that is insecure Jealous Irrational
I am filled with despair, Deep despair, When I think of the first time I turned my back on you. How I doubted your love for me,
In times when I am feeling overwhelmed and completely heartbroken By the hate and fear that runs ramped through our world -
Life is made up of polarities - The sun and the moon Yin and yang Night and day Intent and surrender Shiva and shakti
I crave to breathe deep For every crack Every empty space within me To be filled And overcome with the force that moves all life.
Can you trust in the face of the unknown? Can you sit with this darkness, The darkness of not knowing? Can you keep your faith -
I breathe you in. I inhale, Sipping in slowly, Deliberately, Allowing you to fill my body, Every inch, Receiving your life force.
I am beyond, Beyond the way I look, The clothes I wear. I am beyond, Beyond my thoughts, My words, My emotions. I am beyond,
Sometimes all you need is a safe space Someone to recognize you for who you truly are Someone to hear you To remind you, you're not alone.
