A New Day
(for Linda who inspires)
In the spiral of life, caught
Going round again
Feelings overwhelm, confuse
Wanting to run & hide in shame
Sadness threatens to consume
Lost, alone, spent
No pill to fix or numb this pain.
In this lonely place reaching out
Shards of light break through
Eternal whispers of guidance, Hope
Surrender it all. Be still
Break from the madness of life
For in this place of surrender,
True life begins anew.
Facing it all. Feeling it all.
Overcome by sadness and pain
Enveloped by sweet ecstasy and joy
Beautifully vulnerable, embracing change
In taking the risk. Being real
In this space of truth
I find myself again
In the spiral of life, yielding
Walking through the fire
Sitting with the waves. Enjoying
the synchronicity life brings along the way
Choosing to connect & love
A new day, at peace within
Poised to soar higher.
