Hostage (hearts are blind)

Will you

Let your pain

Hold you hostage

For the rest of your life

Will you close again

In the place your heart

Most wants to open

Will you make of yourself

A victim cursed

Or angel blessed

With woundings

Meant for you to rise above

Even as you find the courage to descend

As deeply as you can

In surrender to the pain

Whose truest intention

Is the reawakening of

Wisdom clarity

The dispelling of

Illusions

Lies and a million other

Confusions

Of those whose unawakened hearts

Are blind

And in their unkindness

Transferred their wounds to you

To bear?
