Let's Not

Let's not

Ignore our annoyance and impatience 

They're here for a reason 

Let's not reject our anger 

And cover it in daisies

It needs us to listen 

Let's not 

Whitewash things

When it's time for something 

That isn't working to end

Let's not 

Blow sunshine up everyone's collective asses

When our hearts are broken 

Let's not 

Put supposed to 

Before authenticity 

Let's not 

Clothe wildness and passion

In safety and "maybe next time"

No 

Let's not 

The blood knows what is true

The body

Is the temple of your soul 

When we choose to ignore 

The messages we receive 

From The Goddess

From Ourselves

They find another way out 

And when they do 

We're usually not happy 

With the doorway they've created 

But you see 

There had to be an opening 

A place to reside 

To be heard In some way 

It's the strangest truth 

That so often these strong emotions 

The ones we reject 

Have the most to teach us 

If we just sit with them 

Lean in 

Listen, hear them 

Allow it 

In all it's messy glory 

In hearing what the message is

That was being conveyed 

And granting ourselves 

The gift of a healthy outlet 

We can find a way forward

And know the gift of release 

So really

Let's not
