I Wish I Had
Line of inquiry:
The ego within forced me to resist
But now I wish I had effused a love mist
With aplomb and flair, just kind of left it there
For self-aware souls passing by, who choose to pair
Long ago I was not the girl I am today
lost in wounds and self inflicted sorrow
I was a worldly ghost in a a sea of pain
with no recourse to love, no not at all
Merely existing in a fast track Universe
I worked and slaved all day and night
never seeing the lantern light of God
that beamed towards my wounded heart
Then one day the good Lord found me
in a lost and found box of mere pity
Oh how I longed to exude love again,
the way I did when I was just a child
Dropping my ego like a ripened pear
I let go and clung to the only love I knew
a mist of compassion wrapped me softly
and I knew then, that I was healed.
