yesterday i received a
sacred visit

In that moment my spirit
detached from my body

As mantis called for
me to turn
within.

To find stillness
in this chaos
Now,

How?

The sun kissed her face
And left a glow there

She was golden,
but the bruises on her body
became her biggest burden
and shame-

and yet she shone on.

My heart broke
That she never dared,
wonder beyond

his shadow.

She said
“I come with a teaching

And I’m not preaching

But you’ve got to learn
to love yourself

Before you learn
to love me

Or any
One
Else.”

I’m empty
Yet I sit
With all the things
That should
Be making
Me happy
But I am not

Because you
Are Not.

...
There are people
worthy
of giving
all
your love
to...

And there are people
who
are simply
not.
Elbee Apr 2020
I'm breathing slowly.

I begin
  to become
             undone  

whilst letting you love me.

It’s a gentle loving,
an act of giving.

We all have cracks
that are in need of filling.
