Does it take time
to shift this paradigm?
I guess it does,
'cause I'm just walking the line.
While I don't wish to live
with my ego's lies
lurking in my head,
I have yet to lean into
the wisdom of my soul.
I've done the mind fraying, soul wearing work
of uncovering the insidious, subconscious subterfuge.
After hours of praying and crying and wishing,
I have hit the root of my trouble.
Beneath all the layers of the ego's subtle aspersions
was "You don't matter", and
"Your trauma made you unlovable".
So I struck this root hard,
and now I find myself
in a tremorous, quivering state
due to both the swiftness of the strike
and the harshness of the lies.
I am both afraid of and empowered by
what I uncovered.
For now I can choose a brand new mind-scape,
one that's filled with only loving truth.
So what is it I'm waiting for? I haven't a clue.
But perhaps this paradigm shift takes time
and perhaps that's why
I'm still walking the line.
