Allowing Soul and matter to come together

You’ve been through a lot

A tiring journey into yourself

Allowing Soul and matter to come together

This caused you to be protective

Of yourself, your thoughts, your privacy, and your heart

Of your body, the vessel of your soul

You’re a woman on a journey

With each step, you’ve acquired baggage

You collected, gathered, and took

And you know

It isn’t easy for you to let go

To be and to give

You need quiet because you deserve it

Life taught you that

Not everything that looks good

Is the best for you

And maybe you aren’t really

Looking to let go

But looking to empty baggage

Empty your day

Simply throw on the backpack

And smile, be excited.

Yes, it’s hard for you to get excited

But you know there are things you learn alone

And things you learn from the touch of another

It sits inside you, kicking

Thinking about it a lot?

About what will happen

When you give your heart

Your privacy, your knowledge, the truth

Inside you, inside your cocoon

That life created

There’s a girl

A girl who wants to break free

To love to dance to scream

To go wild

Just to allow

Without getting hurt

When you trust another

It’s not at all taken for granted, for you

Because you’ve learned to trust yourself

But to trust another, that’s a different story

Slowly slowly

The stillness will come when you decide

Like life taught you

It all begins with you

You turn on the light and also turn it off

It’s all you
