i sit in the bathtub
surrounded by
lit candle wicks
allowing tears to flow
feeling the comforting
cleansing of the water
wash over me gently
as i connect to my breath
the new moon
allows for manifestations
and new beginnings
so, i grab pen and paper
and jot down:
when i see myself in the mirror
i want to look deep within
and see the divine being i am
instead of
someone i wish not to be
i wish to cultivate
self-love, stillness
and harmony;
giving myself the space
to slow down and reconnect
while loving myself tenderly
for all that i am
i wish to spread
this love of self
unto others in my life
and to the collective
beings on the planet
in hopes that they too
will see the beauty
that is already within them
thanking the four elements:
earth, air, fire and water
for their guidance
and protection,
i step out of the bathtub
blow out the candles
dry myself off and
step out of the sacred space
releasing my intentions
into the wild.
