Soul

Sitting in an incense fog

The aroma of moon dust in the air 

I breathe in the good & release what I no longer need here

If I'm tense sometimes it's because I care so damn much

But every night, like tonight 

I take time to realign 

I'm working on me and forgiving the past

Ready to march forward and forget the rest

Collecting gemstone treasures of the Earth

And reaching for love inside myself,

Even when it hurts

I can't bear to look sometimes,

To let my selfish pride show through

But if I repress any part of me

I'm of no service to you 

Little wide eyes watching me

So I let go of youthful vanity 

It's a process, I'll admit that

Hard to hold on to anger

And I'm happy to let that go

My best friend is my soul 

And I'm finding the most peace in that
