For all the times I felt the pain
To love is a mysterious thing
Love comes in so many forms
As a child your want of love
It blinds you to anything else
Do you see me, do you hear me
That’s the stumbling in the dark
From child to teen, to adult
As we age, as we develop
We grow to understand the power
Love is the fuel, the lack of it is the fire
A burning, searing, stripping of the soul
Seeking without finding
And when it is there, it can be missed
We cannot go back in time
Cannot capture what is now a vapor
Memories are all that are left
But forgiveness is the key
It opens the mind to see
All the good that was present
Where once only pain was felt
Look the pain of rejection in the face
And see from someone elses eyes
Everyones struggling to have
Their needs met, do you see them
Can you walk in anothers shoes
Does not excuse the bad behavior
But in order for the pain to ease
One must let go of the heart break
One must embrace the here and now
Yesterday is gone
We can’t have what did not exist
But we can embrace our own hearts
We can recognize that we have the power
To heal our past pain, embracing the lessons
Building on whats learned and reaching higher
We can love our tribes with more power
We who do not take love for granted
Who were once invisible and blinded
We can not be afraid
What once was broken can be mended
Sewn by a three cord strand
Fused together
Love, Hope, Peace
A recipe for joy
So embrace all the broken pieces
Do not be ashamed of your brokeness
Neither let it define you
But let it serve as a teacher
May your heart no longer break
May it be released to love more
Let the streams of life flow
Heal, inspire, give, receive
It’s time to come into the fullness
Of your potential
Let it flow, sometimes with hot tears
Let it go and reach for the universe
Only time will tell your story
You have to write it
No regrets, no excuses
There is love enough for us all
But you must love yourself first
