The Essence Of You; Energy

Get past the smoke and mirrors, to smell the crisp scent of being free

Restraints, road blocks, depression and pain; always present but peace be still

The heat of the hell you were within, is felt as only a reminder as it flows over to slightly kiss your skin

Souls that have transcended before you, hold your essence from harm

Energy released from entities around you, as you exhale and your shell absorbs the vibrations

Lost, you are not

Feet, solid and planted

Fertile ground, touched by hands of ancestors before us

Soil rich with history + moist with emotion, fall between fingers not knowing what lies beneath

Words unspoken, that seem to not be clear when given the energy to allow them to live

On a page, in a book, spoken from lips ripe with wonder and enchantment

Moisture seeps through the pores of consciousness only to find emptiness within the space

The mirrors of our minds tend to trick us into seeing what others perceive us to be

Placing doubt in the holes of the soil in which our hands hold

Those deep scars that time can’t erase, still seem to seep through time

The cycle is always present only filling the void of emptiness that creeps upon your back when you least expect

Soul, wide and long as years flow

Honors you as you honor it

Thoughtful in its space that flows in your core, where the embodiment of your humanity resides
