Yes… I mean No, well maybe
But, yes is what comes
No… Oh wait, sure I can
But, no I do not want to
I give of myself, as I am called
I sacrifice as you ask and demand
I begin to whither away
I long for self and solidarity
But wait, why I ask do I say yes
Guilted, shamed, obligated and torn
My body aches with decision for self or others
To set myself free means to hurt so many
Ahhhh, but you see
This is where the truth begins
It shall set you free!!!
Speak your truth and watch the unfurling
Soar to the highest mountain
Expand your wings with this truth
Free your soul from these burdens
Watch as others do the same, as you lead by example…
