that tastes of heartache?
That feels like longing?

My arms ache,
from trying to hold you

You Burnt me alive,
Welded my Will to the Stake.
But your Fire will not Forever Thrive,
As I was never truly awake.

The fear, dissolved as a yesterday.
Today, I live my true essence,
Released, released in powerful presence.
Whilst, not here to pray,
I hold my higher purpose;

To speak my truth no matter what,
To speak my words of the wordless.
Even if our doors remain shut,
Even if together we fall.
Truth cannot be lost.
Truth cannot be broken.
My truth now uncovered,
My truth now open.
My true self now arisen,
My true self now awoken.

Nothing true, can be truly broken.

You'd think by now
I'd have learned
Not to think
And I swear
I try
But sometimes in
Moments when you
LOOK AT
ME
Like I'M
A PERSON
There's no way to
Stop
Me from coming alive
AGAIN
