Look into the mirror for at least one minute, into your own eyes. Into your soul. Not about how you look, but look into yourself through the mirror. Write what you saw and felt.

Awakening

One fine day,

Will come sooner than later

When I’ll be away.

Away from all,

Away from you,

And closer to me.

That day’ll see the sinking of my body into the depths of truth unspoken,

Proximity unwanted.

That day,

Will see the awakening of my soul,

From the ashes it’s been burning for a millenium.

My soul,

Will rise above all.

Above my fears, above my agony.

Happiness will pour in,

For one last time my soul has to smile-

The smile it has forgotten.

Forgive me my soul,

For I forgot that thou exist.

Forgive me m soul,

For not pampering you enough.

Forgive me my soul,

For not treating you the way you deserve.

On my knees,

I pray you forgive me-

For I was lost in the garden of hopelessness,

Drinking solitude and feeding on despair.

But now I’ve awaken,

Into a well of joy

Along a path with puddles of laughter.

Let me embrace myself,

Close and tight

For I am free from your reins,

From feelings of love,

And rituals of loving all.

Now it is changed,

My soul I am yours,

I love you;

Promise not to leave you in bright darkness again.

For one last time,

Let me celebrate,

’Cause I am mine.
