unbound
we may never know
how we hold
all we can
or how the light catches us
when we are out of breath
it’s a sign of healing
to be feeling again
the real breakthrough
can only arise
from heartbreak
that which ails
cures
reminding us
that it’s always about beginning
and then beginning again
as the waves crash me
i trust the sand
to polish my edges smooth
dissolving denial
revealing real while
courage and confidence
ignite my core
contraction and expansion
let the light stream in
and the stillness
after so much thrashing about
allows the body to wring
the sorrow out
as freedom floods
shadows may persist
know your undertow
as you alchemize the dark
and remember
that you always have
the strength to choose
how to engage
the clouds unveil the view
when you are ready to climb
now it’s time to notice
the miraculous moments
in your life
as they are happening
this
is the making
of me
and we will walk
courageously
into daybreak
from the night
shining our light
together
