Breaking Sane
A Poem

It may be, that after all these years,
I am finally breaking sane
Not that I’ve been bewildered for so long,
but possibly lost inside of myself
pressing the windows of a bag
and getting no traction to climb
The fact that you can break sane
doesn’t mean you’ve been less than sane,
and certainly not insane,
it’s just that sometimes you have to get
out of your own way
I’ve lost that North Star so many times
and then found it within my children,
but they can feel that, and it’s a lot,
so I need to break free of my own
soft pile of limiting beliefs
I want to walk free and swallow the silence
and allow myself to become an ecosystem
in and of itself
A metamorphosis is coming,
and I am breaking sane
