I took a rest after being
My best
But still failing the test
Of my own perfection.
What happened in that pause, when I looked
At the cause
Of my suffering and yours?
I saw protection.
The ego, let loose, fights
Without a truce,
Until you're tied in a noose,
Awaiting the push of failure.
But the humans that we are seldom live
Without a scar,
And we’ve travelled so far
That we’ve earned our freedom.
