my soul's hibernating
tucked safe behind walls
illusions abounding
protecting from falls
well masked eyes
hide the lies
hide the fears
hide the pain
the chameleon guard dragon
provides warmth in the rain
my heart hears the truth
my soul starts to stir
a smile slips my lips
my spirit
it purrs
the end of a poem found tucked away from summer 2011, a time when I was deep in confusion and depression. there was this little spark, however dim. it has taken me years to uncover and begin to recover. this little tiny spark of awakening :)
