I turned off the light
Hoping I could see my thoughts more clearly
Without the light
I look in the mirror and see me more clearly
I am here in this moment
Listening to Nami breathe
Realizing Im not who I claim to be
I take pride in knowing my potential
Yet, take no initiative to fulfill all that I am capable of being and doing
God is said to be the Ground Of Being…..
I say He is the Ground Of Doing
Doing what is right…..
Doing what you want
In a respectful, righteous manner
I am currently what I do
And based on those things...
I am not the being I want to be
But I know my potential
Afraid of my potential?
Maybe
Or possibly
It’s afraid of me
And sometimes I say these things just to be poetic
Without believing a thing
A friend once told me, regarding poetry…
“Be as honest as possible”
In that moment
I realized
I couldnt be...
If so,
It wouldnt be me
Transitional piece
from lies to honesty
Honest Poetry .

It's crazy to think/realize all the lies we uphold just to be "ourselves"...& SO TRUE: they say the mirror doesn't lie, but No, the light enhances things, sometimes falsifies things...What's there when the lights are off, That's who we we really are....
=] Love it. So true. So, so very true.
