~ Journey of Being ~

Blinded
Constant fumbling
In vain, I grasped at Light
Bondage
Inner ball and chains
Against, I fought with might

Tempted
Abuse my Temple
My body which cradles Soul
Triumph
Challenge my faith and will
Shed darkness, pain and cold

Wisdom
Truth maturely learned
A quickening in my Spirit
Forgiven
Cleansed, my cares no more
My soul grows bold and fearless

Love
Heart open, embracing all
I'm connected with humanity
Peace
I nurture, my loving home
I'm being what I wish to see

This is one of those...it's out there lol. I was reading something online and it inspired me a bit for some word play, and while I'm not totally satisfied, I'm sticking it out here before I delete the document and think "Ick..Do over." I like how it started, and was happy with how it turned out. It's basically reflecting both past and current struggle, as well as current reality and growth. I'm just not that satisfied with the words, but it might be one of those that grows on me lol.
