The Center of My Circle

Labyrinth of love

Pattern for peace on a path

Winding and wrapping back on itself

Tracing and traveling my life

now and then...when....where?

Promise of a future....healing of a hole deep

in my heart

On this path to peace.....my path

My peace?

 

Manifesting this future that is my

menacing manipulated dream drenched

in the dogma and stigma of

others

My future is mine

unless I render it useless

by allowing others to live it

for me

Or by not allowing it to live

at all

 

Life support systems are go

I am hooked up to the machine

"beep, beep, beep"

the beat of my heart

But, who is listening to the bass line of my beat

Lifeless lady lost in a labyrinth

of  languished love

 

I pull the plug on the rusted respirator

that pumps lifeless love into my labored lungs

Checking my self out of the ICU

I see me......

And I am ALIVE!

"beep, beep, beep"  the cadence of the

alarm jolting me back to my life

 

New labyrinth, new path

New me

New day..everyday

Rapidly revived

Walking, winding and wrapping back and forth on my self

along the path to my inner peace

Fulfilling the promise

to live and love and breathe

On my own terms

Connected  and complete in the center of the circle of

MY LIFE

 

"beep, beep, beep"

Ge out da way.....

I am comin through!
