I am changed

I am uncaged

I have grown

I am home

Ease is my default

Joy is my nature

Excitement my guide

Laughter my bride

Connection to self

Sure and steady

As a glorious sunrise

Devoted to none

No more need to run

Love in my chest

Tears in my eyes

Is this how it feels

To become alive?

Visibility is not the enemy

But isolation and invisibility are

Lack of motivation is not your enemy

Rather take it as a sign.

Your forcing things on yourself

That your soul did not sign

Listen when it cries

"To this I did not sign!

I DO NOT WANT TO FEEL HALF ALIVE!"

I will not do things in which i feel myself half alive, half abandoning my soul's cry.

So I will, step by step

Turn my course

Learn a new way

To be alive

Learn a new way

To co-orchestrate my life

My days, my chores, my lifeforce

Into something that feels real to me

Into something that is not forced

Into something that is true to me

Not luke warm, not living as if,

Not following a path given to me

But born from my essence

Born from my will, born from

The life that resides within

Born out of joy, born out of a need

For life to express itself through me.

Born from the knowing

That there is nothing else to be

Only to express, experience

and let myself be

The freest impression of the seed

That all along has been within me.

Not quite edited to its final state. But i read your text and it reminded me of this one I had written and think it might be a sister text to yours, or atleast sort... thank you for your writing, for reminding ❤️‍🔥
