Start Travelling

You say that love has ruined you

And I say I see the depth in which your love

Will continue to give.

And I know you don't believe it right now

But believe me when I say

You are love.

You've come across pain.

The deep wounding pain that makes you

Question all manner of purpose and goals.

But deep down, at its very core

Love still lights and warms you.

Feed that fire so that it guides you,

Takes you on a journey.

Melts frozen bits, lights up dark bits.

Allow that warmth to flood your veins

To make you dance and sing.

It is not easy

To let go of that other just enough to allow

Yourself to rest.

And in that rest, that chrysalis

Your wings will grow, bright and beautiful.

But they are your wings and cannot be shared with another.

You may fly side by side for a while,

The beauty of another's journey

Is not the same as yours.

Don't close your eyes to yours.
