True Love Waits – 10.20.16

We let anger get the best of us.

We have no idea why we feel we must behave a certain way,

When it’s all just a quest,

A voyage to find our lost selves,

We plow through, but forcefully,

Hurting the ones we love,

Unintentionally,

All because our soul is screaming to break free,

But we did not know.

We did not understand.

So we created sparks,

Turmoil and waves,

A collateral damage

Which still remains,

And it’s not until that moment

That it all clicks.

That we could have gotten to our destination,

In another way,

A better way.

There is always, a gentle way,

To seek our truths.

It starts with forgiveness.

Expectations

They said:

You are too old to go dancing;

Too married to be dressing that way;

Too motherly to be having fun;

Dedicate yourself to your family;

Enjoy the mundane;

Embrace the routine;

Put them first;

Forget your dreams;

Don’t have any desires;

Build a life designed by society.

And then is when I took a stance and refuted back  “this is not the way I will live, for this is not happiness.”

So I danced, I danced hard. I felt my soul pouring itself on that dance floor.

And I lived the way I wanted to live.

For rules are man made, and so can’t human error exist where rules were once made?

Question reality. Find your truth. Always do what feels right. For your truth is the only truth.
