My Heart Knows
used to be what I feared the most
used to be what I could not face
used to be what I called weak
IT FELT SO MUCH EASIER
TO ESCAPE
I was trying to be somebody else
trying to hide behind masks
covering up the scars
of my past
I WAS TOO SCARED
What I did not know
What I did not understand
MY VULNERABILITY WAS THERE TO TEACH ME
Beyond fear lies love
Beyond weakness lies strength
Beyond separateness lies wholeness
BEYOND...
I chose to risk to be guided
by what I feared the most
MY VULNERABILITY
Standing naked
Not knowing
Listening
...
I felt like
coming
home
I suddenly realized
MY HEART
KNOWS
