A woman

A woman who doesn’t need a husband. I am one of them. I need to love I need to nurture I need to care but I don’t need a husband. Husband wants to own me. Husband wants to control me. Husband demands loyalty husband demands bondage husband wants to be the head and needs a follower. That is not me. 

How I love?

I love freely, I live freely I am who I am, and no one defines me. My love is not restrictive its expansive. It doesn’t take sides it breaks barriers; it doesn’t own it sets free; it doesn’t follow it creates new trails. 

I am fire and ignite passion, I am water and flow to fill in the gaps and the crevices, I am air and fill spaces, I am a hurricane and destroy when I see evil. I uproot that is not worthy of deserving to grow I care deeply so deeply that I do not allow evil to thrive around me even if I see it residing in something I love dearly I will burn it. I will suffer but I will never be dishonest. I will live in pain, but I will never pretend, I will cry rivers and oceans, but I will never trade my tears for a fake smile. 

My singed being will emanate fumes, but I will not allow the soot to gather. Even as I burn, I will blow the soot away, brush it collect it and put it in the drain it deserves to be in. My world in which even if I burn has no space for the dark black soot, it creates light. The light of truth, of goodness, compassion, and kindness. 

The depths of darkness a person can descend to is an indication of how far they still need to travel. How can you walk backwards with someone? Souls only move forward. A soul way far behind needs to be left alone to figure its own journey and a person’s responsibility is to only and only one entity that is one’s own soul. Leave that is not on your path and continue to move forward. You will invite the right souls to join you and help you accelerate your journey upwards. Leave behind that that is not for you to save.
