The Light Inside

“Take the light from deep inside
and make up your mind to let it shine,
despite what seems you could never do
when others think you’re not good enough too.

Or that you can’t find your way
because you aren’t of their kind, they say.
Toss that aside and let it go.
Runaway to the light of your own soul.
Retreat within to the heart of you.
The spark of the Creator is deep inside,
there for you to find, again, in time.

Regardless of what others make you feel,
break loose and look them in the eye.
Know that you can be more
and do not shrink from them in time.
Only a lesson they are for you, we say,
to confront what keeps you, from you, always.

A stronger version of yourself you will be
now that you look the other way.
Running toward all that is true,
the deepest of your soul
where all answers lie too.
Here you find now you can be
all you ever wished, oh yes, you will see.”
