Journey to Free
A clear soul.
pure and undefined
growing and soaking in the ideas and scenes of the world around her
she suffers an unimaginable pain
She soaks it in as her own and then of the ones around her
She becomes someone else, Everyone else
And it almost kills her
With a clouded knowledge of her ability
she suffers for many years, not understanding it
She wants to leave this earth and everything in it except one
The child that loves her more than she loves herself
Stuck between pain and love, the desire to leave and the need to stay
Pushing and driving on through confusion, she becomes insane yet held together by her own strength
the only natural gift that kept her alive
The prison she slept in a fetal position tears pouring from her eyes
held her tighter every cold winter until it ran into Spring and almost into Summer
Something changed when she realized that all she had left was her ability to feel everyone else
That those feelings did not make up who SHE was
They weren't hers and she could give them away
As they left her, she became a clear soul once again
Pure but very defined.
Suffering only the remnants of what a stubbed toe would feel like when the pain begins to dissipate.
Physical pain that is a scar from her #life and a reminder of what was
Opening her eyes, she sees all the good in herself and what is around her
the love in her daughters eyes and the love in her heart for this child
The sun shines and the animals look at her with need
No more weight and confusion
She is free and wise, stronger than before, and willing to feel the sadness and let it go
Everything is new, fresh and she is so happy to be alive
Eyes wide open and heart full of good
She can give this good forever and live a well earned, pure, defined #life.
