It is from being low
That we can rise up high
From kissing grounds
To touching sky
I crouch below
And hide away
My covered face
Begins to pray
I rest awhile
I wait for God
Glory to heaven
Glory, my Lord!
It is from being low

My covered face
Begins to pray

Glory to heaven
Glory, my Lord!
I resent every part of me
That took a stand and
Stood up for myself
The adult within
That said you will not
Abuse the child within
The adult is still there
Lurking in the dark
While the child cries
Uncontrollably
The best I can do
Is to be the best I can be
To lift my eyes
And see the light
To walk with my shoulders back
With my spine in place
With a smiling face
And to see myself
As the best that I can be
I open my heart
To morning sunshine
I invite light
To warm my being
I welcome peace
To wash over me
Help me to show love
Help me to be a friend
Help me to share of myself
Help me to give and not only take
Help me to accept and give thanks
And help me to know it’s not all
About me
No idiots
Until I feel whole again
Until I am not obsessing every single morning, noon and night
Until I no longer hope that you will contact me
Until I erase your touch from my memory –
Your sweet delicious lips that got me every single time?
How long?
(Make it go away)
Remind me
Why I asked you to go
Why I asked you to say goodbye
Why I asked you to leave me alone
Remind me why
And why, why, why
You happily obliged
Negativity
Is a bad habit
Positivity
Is good practice
