We Straighten Our Crowns

Everyone is struggling with something. And many of us have traumatic childhoods from which we need to heal. In order to heal, we need to take time, self-care and space from the world. But, we also need to be able to ask for help when we need it. It's definitely challenging, but a journey worth taking. We will oftentimes feel like a butterfly that goes through a complete metamorphosis to become its beautiful self. There is a greater power than us in the Universe and it is always there. Give the Universe a chance to have your back. We straighten our crowns By Michelle Morris 25/12/2022 When we're young Our worlds are small They revolve around our parents And our four walls We are limited In our perception We don't understand All the deceptions Some are obvious Some are not But we often intuit Signs around us We grow up Confused and dazed Fragmented memories Create a haze As we grow older We understand more It's not always good It's not always helpful But with experience Comes greater insight More wisdom for us To feel right We can forgive But often not forget We need to process We need to vent So much anger So much pain We often think Our life was in vain But when we allow Light through the cracks We give the Universe Chance to have our back The warmth Melts our hearts And gives us a chance To weld a new part Stronger and wiser With love and hope We grow our wings We polish our soul We straighten our crowns We dodge the arrows We live a life that is on The straight and narrow And one day When we go home We'll know that we Are souls good to know Heaven embraces Each one of us For we are love Light and stardust © Michelle Morris, 2022
