wrote this a couple weeks ago. felt like sharing it today
blessings,
lori-ann
Slowly slipping out of my dehydrated shrunken skin
I step away from it reluctantly.
Looking back
I reminisce
Eager, yet afraid.
Without my self to support it
The empty shell falls
Crashing to the ground
Shattered remains of a life I once knew
A self I once was.
The remnants of my comfortable skin
Once snug and warm
Now lie in a heap
Shrunken, broken, devastated.
The casing that once enveloped me
Now has no purpose
And has no place
No longer will it keep me safe
No longer will it keep me secure
The armour that once sheltered my body, my mind and my soul
No longer protects me from harm.
The broken shell of my being now ashes
Now dust
Blow away with the wind
I wave goodbye
Thankfully joyfully I walk away
Away from the shell of my old self
And toward the awakening.
My slow reluctant stride
now quicker eager paces.
In the distance I can see her
She waits for me
She knew I would come.
Together we awaken.
