Hurting...and Healing
I have found...
That evidence of healing
can be found ...inside the thickness
of the scars
Even though some wounds look painful
Even though some scars seem hard
I reflect...
As I run my mental fingers over
the outline of some of my wounds
Allowing the itch of the memory
to come alive ...
No Longer am I an open wound
Allowing the essence of my Life Force
To Spill over and out of me...
No Longer is My Soul in danger of
Becoming infected
with the rejection
Of Acceptance
I am at peace with my mistakes
I am at peace with my faults
I am at peace with my Demons... For now
Constantly soothing the core
Of my Being...
with as much Laughter as I can
with as much joy as I can
with as much Love... as I can
For it is these things...
Along with the support
of those who care for us
That makes this process successful
When things Heal...
They Seem to Hurt a little more...
But only for a while...
Accepting what has already happened
In our lives... is the first step
To Forgiving ourselves or Others...
NO Matter the Wound...
It can not be changed...
It can not be undone ...
Let that quiet realization
Become the first layer
NO Blaming...
Just Acceptance
NO guilt tripping...
Just.. Acceptance
Then...
The Real Work Begins
That evidence of healing
can be found ...inside the thickness
of the scars
Even though some wounds look painful
Even though some scars seem hard
I reflect...
As I run my mental fingers over
the outline of some of my wounds
Allowing the itch of the memory
to come alive ...
No Longer am I an open wound
Allowing the essence of my Life Force
To Spill over and out of me...
No Longer is My Soul in danger of
Becoming infected
with the rejection
Of Acceptance
I am at peace with my mistakes
I am at peace with my faults
I am at peace with my Demons... For now

Amazing piece, very truthful. Observing an issue from a distant point is always helpful in accepting things and realizing how they are. There is great wisdom in realizing that others just see thing differently and act on behalf of what they see, viewpoints are relative, so is experience, so are emotions and perceptions, meaning of an act. There is only what you see, you have to take it as yours, accept it, acceptance will bring you peace ;)
