Love lives here
But sometimes it lays obscured
Underneath all of the burning and the burdens
That have to be released
Before we can find the path to peace
There can be a way that our mind becomes
One track
Unless we find a way to derail the repetitive thoughts
That only lead us deeper into a valley of depression
There is a light that want to burn
But first we must face this darknes
And this pain
There is a love that want to rise
But first it must uncover the true spirit
Buried under layers of shame
There is a self that wants to live
But will not ever find the way
Looking outside
There are roots so deep
That ask for us to unravel them
So we can finally place our new life
On a stronger foundation
Than the one of the past
That only led us to recreate
More and more suffering
Your deep and thoughtful poem reminds me of this lovely song by Xavier Rudd.. “Full Circle”.. it’s a 10 min tune, but worth the relaxing listen… ((Happy New Year Deb)).. ππππ
