"The Ability Within"

 

Yesterday...

Was today's hope...

A wish made for another moment in living...

To witness our own creation daily

Because we are this existence

Learning on a forever changing time line

Never deny your capacity to feel

But limit the access to those who wish to use it against you

Do not censor your inner being to appease others

Stop rewarding inconsistency with unavailability

Set free the broken kept...

Shed the heavy weight...

The sharp pointed pieces only cause more harm when embraced

Letting go can mean so many things

It doesn't mean giving up...

Maybe it just means that after all this time you are finally beginning to see

That even without closure, you are worth a new beginning

That sometimes we just simply have to let it hurt

Feel it...

And then release it...

It is not your responsibility to confine yourself to anothers definition of completion

You are not obligated to suffocate your bloom in growth

Because someone refuses to grow with you

It's an intense truth...

But reality knows...

If they wish to destroy you...

Then your survival is offensive to them

This is why pain only creates change within you that you would never choose

But healing creates options you can change with choice

So acknowledge the ability within darkness

Its part of all of us...

But remember always

Without it...

We would never know the possibilities within the light.
