traces of being Nov 2016
indifferent to unplanned pathways  
destiny knows not enslaving bounds
pathways crisscross at befallen crossroads
knowing all roads lead to all roads

restlessly searching through the ache writhing within,
the voice of my soul speaks crystalline
through the hidden portal of my heart

beckoning the wounded healer within
be at home in the silent darkness of suffering
to perceive the gems of awakening light;

embrace the lessons where the wounding leads us
to bring forth a healing reincarnation,
intimately feeling the collective pulse of humanity echo
a wholeness in a deeper level our being

the only spark to rekindle a flame blown out
a soul’s assent to the labyrinth through the wound
note:
snippets from a conscious ramble;
a shameless attempt at understanding a potentially higher conscious  self
written to advocate for, to support all wounded healers
that often experience the potential gifts of a wounded heart

if this is "too deep" i'll just keep trying
to find my way through the dark maze on my own

all apologies ... wild is the wind

all in all is all we are ♡

you love me
(can be used in place of i'm beautiful)*

tell me i'm beautiful when i’m crying

crack me open and watch the colors bleed from deep within my soul
like a painting that hasn’t completely dried
admire the light that peaks through the clear parts of me like a window with no blinds
(and don't forget to admire the parts that aren't as clear)

tell me i’m beautiful when i’m laughing
when i’m being a nerd and reading my favorite books
when i'm talking about my lame games and strange hobbies

tell me i'm beautiful
when i’m stuffing my face with those ******* golden oreos while i sit on my bed sheets that i haven’t washed in weeks
i’ll know you can’t be lying

you've listened to the waves my heart makes when i'm sleeping
and you've called my smile back to the surface many times when i've tried to deflect it back inside

tell me i'm beautiful
no matter how dumb it sounds
because that's all you'll ever have to do to make everything okay

— The End —
