Era

Where does it begin, where does it end.
Thought? Moving, vanishing, disappearing;
unless provoking.
Repeating, recurring,
subconscious. Occurring.
All at once, too many.
Discipline oneself,
pay attention.
Stop, listen.
Relax, release,
unleash the thinker.
Or not.
Let it go.

I no longer wish to ink you,
as I erase you from my mind.
Words cannot describe the pain.
The years I spent in vain.
I need to retreat.
Recover, regain my senses.
This time, I’ll make sure,
to never hurt like this again.

Fools rush in blind,
demanding destiny reveal her answers.
Life’s not that way,
has to unfold in its order.
Can’t rush it, force it,
or make demands.
Assuming you’re ready,
when you are not.
Wisdom is patience,
knowledge is knowing,
healing is revealing,
at exactly the right time.

I walk the path unknown,
unfamiliar.
At ease, I trust my steps are aligned.
Destination is destination.
Every step, perceived mis-steps.
Lead to where you need to be.
Precise, no accidents,
all in order.
Knowing and acceptance become
freedom.
Be honest, most of all be honest
with yourself. And then,
wherever your path will take you,
you’ll know it’s headed in the right direction.

Celebrate the person you are.
You’re not the opinions of others.
You’re uniquely you.
You don’t need to agree if you disagree.
You don’t need to follow the crowd.
You don’t need to please others, to the
detriment of yourself. You need to
speak your truth and be the real you.
Speak and act in a way that
celebrates, appreciates, all of
who you are. Do it with love.

I lay myself bare for you,
I give you my all, and more.
Vulnerable, open…
I’ve lived and learned.
Mystery…
You thirst for more.
You yearn for what you do not know,
although, you’re silently aware.
Observing, take note, life lessons
