“Shine light where the darkness begins.
You see it all around you,
and yourself sometimes too -
the human way of emotion that fires
like a missile into the heart of another -
shattering what was created
of time spent to get to know
another Soul in life.
But it is fiery heads and emotion too,
not managed by the Soul of you,
but instead for the human to do.
For it is the human experience, we say,
to learn to feel your feelings
but not let them be the master
of you in your day.
For hearts break and bridges are burnt
over the slightest miswords.
Then what was built comes tumbling down
into dust on the ground.
Blown into the wind and nevermore
do you again find a way to the other’s door.
So, as you travel this journey wide,
know that the words you choose to respond
to those who break your heart open wide
and who set themselves up
for you to bid them goodbye-
what you leave with them can carry too,
into your vibration,
sinking you into where the light becomes dim
and then the darkness engulfs you,
only so you can win.”
