Threads of Life

This tapestry of life,

Weaving each color of creation,

All depends upon the next,

To bring forward each expression

Brisk yellow showed me my worth

Journeyed to the core, deepest wounds

Rounded up my fears and doubts

Bright rays dissolved all the pain

Forgiving rose petals

Gently unleashed my heart

Radiating pink from my aura

Revealing my trans masculine self

Glittering flecks of abundance

Bringing forward my value

Self worth was difficult to embody

Until gold unleashed my power

Hidden depths of emotion

Released the bluest sweet sorrow

Causing words to stream out

Filling my life with endless expression

Passionate creativity holds both

Citric orange and raging red

Turning my pain into art

Grounding suffering into beauty

Nothing compares to expansive violet

She has given me spirituality

Healed my broken spirit with silver specs

Fueled wholeness and for that I’m free

Totality sweeps me up

Holding my shattered self together

Purely white is the glue

It is the truth of you and me

Getting here requires the next

Blackest of black holds the key

Once this void is entered

All is possible from nothingness, there’s me

Life giving green, breathe life in me

Every day, these feet planted in grass

Dancing with fertile brown soil

Allowing gentle nurturing and support

Consume my life and teach me to flow

Move effortlessly from shade to shade

Every transition, every decision

I owe my life to you.

Exquisite colorful threads

You’ve shown me my soul.
