You
Its strange, the word you
When you say you
I think, who?
As all versions of me scatter around in my being
Who are you seeing?
Every you
A new
Perspectives unlocked
Overflowing from this 'you' teapot
Your you different from their you,
His you transformed from her you
The scary thing is
does that means I don’t know my original you
How can so many reside in me?
I don’t know if I prefer that
Or consistency
would it make me boring?
one you
but their is always a core
the peeling back
the transcending above
isn't that the journey we're on?
we can recreate and redefine ourselves
new layers till we get to the core
and what we'd find eventually that the journey to the core was buried in everything we had to lose to get there
and a question to ponder on would be if we already knew each layer of our existence before we flowed into it,
knowing of each raindrops arrivial before it set sail into our sea
each part discovered wasn't really a discovery to the soul
those are the contracts people speak of, fascinating.
as none of this would matter if we remembered,
this journey can be so suffocating but at least thats how we really know we're alive
from something so breathtaking we find ourselves gasping for more of it
it wouldn't matter if life was only on a high all the time, the lows allow the balance of the all
we must know both to experience the all
and in the end what we'd find eventually was that the journey to the core was buried in everything we had to lose to find it
deaths met before deaths met
it all mattered and yet in the end none of it matters
so, one me, one you
would it make me empty or would it make me full?
how should I know the first you from the rest
i've figured out
to bathe in the original you
That is to be alone
That is the first you from the rest
The rest play and bounce around invading energies
rare energies
who have access to explore around my aura
most are off limits to my deep end
they paddle around my shallow end,
most are off limits
until they’re not
but that’ll take some time
most will never meet underneath the layer of perception
i struggle to thin my veil
but do i really have too?
and yet i find it a weakness to not be able to always express myself comfortably
but whatever this is, whichever layer i'm at, i will always collect its lessons and bare my fruits, she's only recently been uncovered, lets see what she becomes
but it's funny because people can only perceive you from their own realities
so what does the social anxiety matter,
what does it really matter who i'm trying to show people and who goes in to hide
but i acknowledge that all the fixtures are within me, and thats really the only journey that matters
we must remember though, nothing needs fixing within
everything in our experiences is apart of the perfection that is consciousness
at my core,
there is so much love and depth
so much fun and smiles
so much silliness and playfulness
so many words of wisdom
so much passion for life
the easiest way for people to peep behind her curtains, is too either be patient with her or too tap into her forms of expression
she loves to write, she's always been magnificent at writing, to the point that she though that's the only thing she's good at, she does still think that
from young, school installed in her that nothing makes you special unless you excel at everything they force fed us
I have a memory of my child self crying at her 'weaknesses' that she was compelled to do in a way that didn't resonate with her wonderful mind, and so ignoring everything she's amazing at, she is amazing at making people smile and laugh, she is amazing at making people feel at peace, she is amazing at storytelling and expressing herself through her emotions and creativity. She is truly amazing.
wondrous silence leaks out from her so that you may feel safe in her embrace
you just need to give her some time and for the love of god when she needs it
her space
but rest assured she knows which energies fascinate her
something people have felt about this being is her fascination with the experience of life, every part of it, she will make you pause and notice this beautiful world, the captures of life that don’t get always get the appreciation it deserves
her guard will guard if felt needed to guard
but if she shows you a peak of her its your call to journey onwards
most have tried to get close and felt they were being swallowed by a true reflection, of this intensity of life she so effortlessly radiates,
something she never realised she did, she unlocked 'tower moments' in others and most were not ready for the rabbit hole to their own soul.
i'm so proud of her for this inner power because all she wants to do is help others, but it does often leave her quite lonely
so thank you for the ones who stuck around her energy and ventured further into her garden
because others can't even imagine the extent that she drowns frequently
yet she has a habit to dull this drowning by thinking of what others may be going through instead of herself, she probably won't ever stop doing that even though she knows its pointless to her own experience
but if others just gave her a chance, they'd find the warmth beyond it
beyond her
they can only see and use the surface level of warmth that naturally floods out
because she has a lot of depth in her old soul
unfold slowly, too fast it surely won't last
the magnificence about this being,
she knows her journey is hers alone to walk
and she so will shower you in all the love she can give for your own
she's trying so hard for others
only to find out that she was meant to be giving herself back way more
a lot of her has been lost, damaged, stepped on, walked over, taken, owned, forgotten, unseen and unheard of for a long time
whilst having to stay a float, in a boat that understandably broke
now she drifts
and feels much better on the water of her own tears
she may now learn to surround and surrender in her love
this next you, feels powerful and free, she's making her way,
and what will be will be.
