Love & Beyond

Poem vol. 5

Love and beyond, so she said I’ve faced it all now, please let me be.

Give me a break I’ve set me free. Enough sacrifices that little girl was deep. I was deep.

I wish I was there for her I wish she knew then what has become of her As I am vigorous and free fragile but wise free of hurt free of wounds free from wrongdoers free of it all.

The shield responded, “What you forgot by dwelling into an abyss of your pain is finally revealed. The journey you were forced to take was to bring you back to your sacred place.

You needed to keep the goodhearted girl alive within growing vigorous was not about pushing your vulnerability aside.

It takes years to learn a simple lesson the purity that child had was not supposed to be lost or forgotten. The goodness, kindhearted that girl used to be was never wrong or a weakness. She was never vulnerable but strong The pain grew because she trusted the wrong.

It was about strengthening your being, your intuition; it was about keeping the purity of your heart the same.

the lesson is simple, dear child - the answer was not to harden your heart but to sharpen the mind.”

Namaste & Thank you for reading!
