Time of Transition

 

We are so full of triggers

full of learned behaviour,

is it even possible to undo it all?

Every day I go about

catching myself ere I speak without thought,

I look with scepticism at every rule,

I question the steps I’ve been taught

and very little stands up to scrutiny now,

I was filled with horror, fear, shock, anger,

entertained thoughts of vengeance and war

but this war was already waging,

within.

It is said, we need to reach the bottom

before we can rise,

we have to face every fear,

we have to realise ourselves

as sovereign, autonomous beings,

we have to recognise

we are from here, from this earth,

we do nOt need to fit in, belong, conform,

we have our place, we are perfect, whole, free souls,

meant to wander freely as we desire,

with respect to nature, to mother earth,

live with the sun and the moon,

live with the seasons,

and we will be filled with light,

rewarded with love,

live in peace and joy……
