If you have been told or come to believe
Through some mistake
That you are broken
You are bad
You are wrong
Simply for feeling and being who you are
Kick the shaming voices out of your head
Cut the endless feedback tape loop
Or tie the tape in knots
And throw it in the trash
Let the nasty negative voices yammer,
Yammer on
But don’t let them hammer your soul
And being into submission
Shut the door
And shout it out
At times I feel small, weak and vulnerable
And even more so
When you tell me I am less that I am
But being able to own this
Makes me strong
And I have gifts
I feel deeply and I see a lot
That makes me open and wise
I feel pain and doubt at times
That means I am very human and alive!
But I am not broken
I do not need to be fixed
I just need to feel free enough
To feel this life
And throw open loving arms and being
Wide enough
To embrace it all
All the pain, all the joy, all the heartache, all the longing
Allowing it to move through me
And in being true
Find the courage to say without fear
This is me
And no inner or outer voice
Will cripple my spirit any more
Or convince me that life
Has truly broken me
Absolutely love this Deborah. ❤
