Depths
2024
Climbing down to the depths
One stair at a time
Facing oneself
Fighting oneself
Choosing, not the “I”
Consciously
Knowingly
One tiny itty bitty step at a time ( with Your Grace)
Turning away from falsity
Towards light
No one said it was
Going to be this way!!
There is no romance to this choice
Yet it feels strangely right!
Paradox surrounds this place
Heart trembles at every step
To choose to stay in the boat
and not jump out and indulge
the things that the mind brings up
sometimes, is very easy
and other times takes an army of strength!
