I want to be me
I learn with others
And still, I gotta be me.
Don’t tell me who I should be
Don’t tell me I’ve been doing it wrong
Guide with a gentle hand
Enforce your light
Never demand.
When your teachings are done
We’ve learned what was meant for us
Your teachings are not the only way
And neither are mine.
Embrace your huge heart, she said.
Love yourself until
The day the earth stands still, and stops rotating.
Love all parts of you, from head to toes, organ to organ, the backside we don’t see unless it is in the mirror, and even the places you refuse to see.
Love the parts you don’t think you can.
Respect your beingness.
Don’t let ‘em talk to you that way.
Everyone has got a path we can’t see
We learn over and over
Still, I gotta be me.
🩷,
Lisa Eve
