Emotional Cleansing

A.M. Morgan
Tears flow endlessly from a heart of suppressed pain.

The tough skin of a false sense of self has softened its reign.

No one can shield it for it must openly recover from its broken wings.

It's a necessary adjustment so a spirit can breathe without hesitation again.

In order to live one must formally die to the past and forgive others of all offenses.

For the soul to relax it must let down all calculated defenses.

For love cannot grow under false pretenses.

In order to experience this sigh of relief it's time to abandon all intentions.

The difficult part is over and the wounds are healed.

There is nothing more to conceal.

This consecration is real.

An emotional cleansing has been revealed
