I wanted to share with you a poem I wrote during my recent visit to India. I think it is self explanatory – however if not… what I am trying to express is how beautiful it is when people are them self and completely open and vulnerable. When one has let the ego, thoughts, attachments etc. all go and are content with what is left.
I truly believe that the more we express our true inner self the more people surrounding us begin to feel comfortable enough to do the same.
Too often we distract ourselves or try to fill this void within with material things or even people, which is not fair. Learn to love yourself first to allow yourself to love others….
Masked illusionsMaterial things we all possess
Collecting them greedily
Relationships we grasp onto
To fill that void – only temporarily
For what?
And for whom?
Think it will reveal who you are?
Your status … Your being ?What if they were taken?
What would be left?
You
It would be you standing questioningQuestioning …
who is this person?
Where have I gone?Can’t you see
The attachment to materials
To relationships
To people
Become your comfortable maskYour mask
To hide all the fears
You continuously avoidTo cover Your inner self
The inner self you’re so
scared to meetNow try to Find the
beauty you hold
Your potential
Your AbilityAbility To come alive
be happy
Feel love
Live lifeBy simply
Finding And
being
Yourself.With no materials
No mask
Just
YouA Vulnerable you
