I Must Submit

I have strayed, betrayed, let my soul out of your control, oh how this has destroyed what I know. Just days, moments, each second I became more lost, deep inside I was dying, knowing I helplessly fought. My soul is meant to submit, to follow what I know is true, to give up my life, my decisions are up to you. Dying deep inside, I've feared this despair, I know that I must come back, but I am so scared. Please accept me stained, broken by this life, I know I have forgotten, how you have forgiven before. This submissive soul in me, was never meant to run away, I have been reminded now, that you truly lead the way.

Your soul is as free as the wind, Ms. Betty and you do not ever have to "submit" to anything or anyone. This is your journey and the Universe loves you just the way you are ... smile ...
