Freed From The Fall

Free

from all binds

That kept me

tied up too long

*

Clear

of all karma

That kept me

reliving past lives

*

Healed

of all wounds

That kept me

bleeding out love

*

A year ago

it seemed like

I'd lost something

irreplaceable

*

A fall from grace

so hard that

I couldn't get up again

*

It took sometime

but now I understand why

*

It's the hardest

I've ever fallen

after feeling

a love so tall

*

Recovering

from a spill like that

without him offering

a helping hand

a dressing for my wounds

or even

an apology

*

after he floored me

without any

acknowledgement

was harder

than the gravel

he left me on

to bleed

*

Adding insult

to injury

with his cold

disregard

*

But as a goddess warrior

I stood up again

and

I marched on

*

Without him

I healed

the hurt

carried

in my bones

*

I cured

the dis-ease

in my heart

*

Alone

I transmuted

the hurt

into happiness

*

Now

I'm stronger

*

Standing taller

than I was before the fall

and I will still bravely love

harder than I did

going forward
