I Let My Light Shine

There is a pain that lies within; so deep and buried there.

It clouds my eyes and blinds me from my love within.

It hurts my heart and head and my energy that surrounds.

The weight of guilt so heavy; I cannot take a step.

But I pretend that nothings wrong and give my biggest smile.

While all the time I'm sinking, I have no branch to reach.

 

Then one day my angel came and pulled me from my hole.

She taught me how to love myself and melt the pain within.

She taught me how to lose all guilt; it was not mine to claim.

She taught me how to bring the Light to cleanse my body and soul.

And as the Light surrounded me, I could no longer sink.

And as the Light grew within me, I knew that I could fly above my past; no longer to return.

 

I can rise above the path I walked and change my path with thought.

A lesson learned to change my life and learn how just to BE.

The past is gone; cannot return.

The future is mine to create.

My life is in this moment and it is my choice to choose to

really smile and let my love shine through.

For I am strong and I love me and forgiveness keeps me safe.

It shields me as a bright white armor  that no negative can

penetrate.

 

I live with love each moment; for fear cannot find me there.

For love and fear cannot exist within the same time frame.

It is my choice to shine my Light and let my love shine through.

    The reason I loved this one was because it was written from your heart, it's how you really felt, and there was so much truth to it that everyone can relate to.
    Thanks for entering this.

    Wow! This poem is chocked full with faith and hope! It is truly amazing when we can grow enough to realize that we have choices in everything and it is up to us to do what is best for ourselves. This touches me because it is something I am in the midst of doing too. Realizing my own choice. Nice write and so inspiring. Blessings, Patty

    If this poem doesn't feed the soul, then we are already
    buried 6 feet under!
    What a masterpiece of a well written and smartly done
    bold soul song!

    your words spring from Truth ...
    while fear belongs to the realms of time (our temporary belief of identity, the body-mind-organism)
    love transcends ego and temporarity ... it is when "I" am not ... unconditioned and unconditional ...
    we cannot serve "both masters" : ego and our true Self which is Pure Consciousness ...

    thank you so much for this precious reminder !
