SUNBURST
I come here to see my shadow dance.
I come here to exaggerate my shadow
and watch it shrink as I shower it with love.
With your love, your compassion
Now with my own love and self-compassion.
I keep coming back.
Back and forth.
Following my shadow cast from my sunlight.
I keep showing up
cutting a groove
that leads down into me.
My belly button pounds to escape
my comfort zone.
THUMP! THUMP!
Heart beat.
Loud fear.
THUMP! THUMP!
Feet stomp.
Courage stalks memories.
A tight lipped hiss inhale.
Inhale fear.
A slow pressing exhale.
Exhale courage.
Tears and sweat roll down my body
melting my fear into the floor.
I dance in a puddle.
My puddle turns into pond.
Pond swells into a creek.
Creek spills into river.
Gushing hope.
Breaking dams.
Flooding my dance
with love.
Looking into my puddle
I see sunbursts.
I come here to see my shadow dance.
I come here to exaggerate my shadow
and watch it shrink as I shower it with love.
With your love, your compassion
Now with my own love and self-compassion.
If you pulled sunburst
you are the center of your universe.
What burns inside you
beams out of you
unstoppable.
You know what your heart desires.
You know your truth.
NO negotiating.
NO compromise.
NO shadow operating today.
Your relationships feel you
see you
hear you.
Your presence makes this world
a better place.
Show up for yourself.
Be SELF-ish with a Capitol S!
you are the center of your universe.
