I recently found a piece of paper on the floor of my bedroom…
With these words on it…
I have no idea when I wrote them…
But, here they are.
I want to sit with
You
In surrender
and
Love.
I come before you
oh, Breath,
I come into your
rest
Oh, Creator
I sit with you
Oh, Word
Release my body,
as I surrender
to You.
As I surrender
to my
imperfection
As I surrender to
you Your
will
healing
and
Love.

As you wake the morning after
Was it worth it?
The stress
The panic
The fight
The turning away.
Turning away from self
From attunement
From god
From being held.
Was it with it?
As you wake the morning after
Was it worth it?
The years you have played
Hard
Crazy
Tired
Disconnected
With no time.
Was it worth it?
Waking up the morning after
Was it worth it?
The pain has arrived
The heat of disconnect
Is in my bones.
In my every breath.
Was it worth it?
As I wake the morning after
Was it worth it?
It’s in the too much
The overindulgence
The disconnect
And the pushing away.
Was it worth it
As I wake the morning after
Was it worth it?
I ask my future self
Is today worth it
For my tomorrow?
My tomorrow self
Wants to chime in too
And say thank you
For the concern and care.
Was it worth it
Waking up the morning after
Was it worth it?
The lifetime of looking back
Of concern that is not mine
Of eggshells
Of not speaking loudly
Was it worth it
Waking the morning after
Was it worth it?
The opportunities
To meet
To greet
To play
Was it worth it
Waking the morning after
Was it worth it.
The heat is palpable
The aching is a constant grumble
The waking sleep is boringly exhausting.
Was it worth it
Waking the morning after
Was it with it?
The waiting.
Waiting for others
Waiting for myself
Waiting.
The queues
The lining up
The circling
The finding the way.
Was it worth it?
Waking the morning after
Was it worth it?
Oh, the dancing
The painting
The singing
The laughing.
Oh, the Yes!
Looking into your eyes
Hugging your trembling body
Finding our safe place and space.
Was it worth it?
Waking the morning after
Was it with worth it?
Of course
Yes
And
No
Was it worth it?
All of it
Parts of it
Some of it.
Waking the next morning
I ask my future self
what she needs
For it all to be worth it.
For the joy
To be worth it
For the pain
To be worth it.
Waking the next morning
I ask my future self
What she needs
to feel embraced and heard.
Simply a look of concern
A thought of care
An embrace of connection
A voice of laughter.
Was it worth it
As I wake the morning after
Was it worth it?
Only with Love
Only through Love
Only because of Love.
It is Love
That imbues worthiness
Only Love
Only Love.
