Journey with me on the path of the loving heart
Do I deserve to be?
I need to love another.
Can I commit my love?
Perhaps its object will be less than my visions
(And then I would be less)
perhaps I am not brave enough to find new vision
through a real and breathing person.
I need to come in touch with my own power,
not with titles, not possessions, money, high praise,
but with the power that is mine.
As a child of the Power that is the universe
To be a comfort, a source of honor,
Handsome and beautiful from the moment I awoke this morning
So strong that I can risk the love of someone else
So sure that I can risk to change the world
And know that even if it all comes crashing down
I shall survive it all—
Saddened a bit, shaken perhaps,
Not unvisited by tears
But my dreams shall not crash down
My visions not go glimmering
So long as I have breath
I know I have the strength to transform
what I can be to what I am.
The day has come
To take an accounting of my life.
