There is a delicate balance

to be achieved between

speaking your truth

and  sitting on what you know

and allowing time to guide

you to right action

Often it’s important

to take a journey into silence

to block out all external noises

and internal fears

ask yourself

is this the path you envisioned

for yourself

what is it that your heart

seeks to know

what dreams are yours

to live

what life is now

to be given up

for the greater you

to come forth

how to walk in the light

without seeming to hurt another

how to write the stories

of the characters

you’ve lived with

for more than two decades

move forward

listen

accept

know when to avoid

the light and when

to seek

darkness

allowing self

to emerge

and dance intimately

with self
