Everyday we grow
in body, spirit, mind, wisdom, insight and understanding
change is so common that we think its nothing
that it is doable and minor
until its consequences are loud in our eyes
that we feel them when we close our eyes
then we know that we are transitioning

when i look around i see
the outstanding bodies, spirits and minds
that have grown me and held me
close to allow me to feel normal through my growth
to bring needed direction to my daily transition

i felt strong even when i knew weakness
even when i saw darkness, i was firm
to the knowledge that i was still heading in the right direction
to meet my all in all my strengths
that one day i will see my direction in all exceptions

I know my calling, to be the best i can
live the best way i can
stand up tall at all times
not to mean that i am already there
so i search for the misfit
to see if i can find the unseen to my eyes
to open my body, spirit, mind and soul
that i will live without doubt

i see the potential as well
i don't want to hide in the outstanding bodies i know
the outstanding minds and best wisdom there is
to truly transition into myself

i know i will hide
if i allow myself to
constantly hide within your outstanding
body, spirit, mind, wisdom, insight and understanding
so i will commit to only myself
to searching for your body, spirit, mind, wisdom, insight and understanding when i am out of balance
to allow my own to reach the height it will reach non shielded

love shamie
