In your very weakest moments
Doubts and fears that threaten to end you
The times when the very substance
Of who you thought you were
Shaken and stripped away
Even love seems to have flown
Sitting on the floor
Curled in a ball
Fear, sorrow and emptiness
Vying for control
Stop fighting with it
Allow the fear, and face the void
Witness yourself
Broken as you are
Embracing it, the wave of it
It breaks over you
Fleetingly, you wonder
Will it completely
Wash you away
And then
Something unexpected
Rocking, sobbing
An aching tenderness begins
Tendrils, like new spring growth
Nourishing the life within
Love, here
Exactly as things are, exactly as YOU are
All the words, the striving fall away
Precious, sacred vulnerability
Like a newborn baby
Just you, breathing
Gossamer threads of connection
With every thing
Standing, more naked than ever in your life
Raw with emotion
Drawing in sacred breath
Closing your eyes, feeling your own heart
Oh, sweet delicious BEING
A new power within
You are reborn
Strength found in weakness
No rules, no more confused thoughts
Gone the tangled striving
Focusing on the love
The light that shines within
Standing now, looking at the sky
Feeling the wind on your face
Colors, so vivid
Life, seen through the heart
Such power
In simply being
Heart rhythm
Shining, breathing and flowing
The Universe smiles
