You turned your back,
And the whole world
Disappeared from view,
Its purpose suddenly faded
In sepia-tinted memories.
You walked away,
And I saw myself alone
Rooted in unforgiving earth,
A diminished spirit,
Resistant to forward motion.
I turned inside
To look beyond illusion
Searching for my connection;
The glow of inner knowing
Reflected back to me in love.
I now stand tall
To view beyond the clearing
A universe possible and true;
The mirror of my heart
No longer shadowed by you.

glad you found the strength to get that freedom...whole lot easier to see without those clouds eh?
Some shows ... even if we try to divide them, they are always a whole for us, because our mind is able to create "the show"...
