Emotional truth

Emotional truth

You are what I long for

And even if it means I must be separated

From all of the false friends

Who profess to love but in time abandon me

When I express the truth

Then am I not better

Just to be

Held here alone

By my soul

By the Great Spirit

And by silence

For surely I see more and more lately

It is a strange world out there

One in which authenticity

Can so often be missing

But if we cannot know and honour the emotional truth

Of what we have lived through

How can we actually be

The souls we were mean to be

Unbridled and free

Fully awake and alive

With the light of our selves

Shining bright

From so deep down inside
