Even in the darkness of fear
remain open
trust that the light of day will
once again shine on your soul
when someone offends you
try not to close yourself off
from the lesson
don't let your ego
convince you that
its better to be in isolation
stay soft, vulnerable
allow the pain to hurt
face your fears
and when you do
they will pass
and the warmth of your open heart
will melt away the pain

ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful poem, and I would love to share it with women I work with who are recovering from fears and trying to find a safe open place.
