I need to erase the expectations I nurtured
as a child
a teen
a young woman
For there is no failure in survival.

Awakening
Winter Sun by Evgeni Dinev/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
My face has been set to the biting winds
for so long
that I failed to notice
the sun is shining

Be still.
Contentment envelopes
begging me to stop grasping at what is to come.
Learn to seize what is here now.
Settle.

Prophecy Overturned.
You will suffer heartbreak
You will be fearful of your protector
You will escape only to be imprisoned
Your heart will be healed, only to be burned
You will be haunted by deceit
You will cry enough tears for three
You will be left with nothing
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have everything I need
And more.
My heart is full.
My spirit shines.
I want for nothing.
?
Why is it easier to doubt myself
rather than recognise the failings of others?

They all leave
in one way or another.
Beginnings.

Everything must come to an end
but each ending spawns a new beginning.
This is my beginning.
A brief falter.
Heart Apple by Clare Bloomfield/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
I have drifted off the path …
looking for answers in others again,
but I know you will forgive me.
Because you know what the outcome will be.
And so do I.
