Poetry Poem: Wake Up
My power to forgive you
Tore down the fortresses, the castles of protection
This epiphany of strength
Is the liberation from my self-destruction
For I had become accustomed to being alone
Truly, unexpectedly the immature shattered
Then the me that mattered emerged
Perhaps a little shaky
Perhaps a tic unsure
I recognized the moment was mine, not yours
You you you said
I’d die
God!!! Thanks be, for true I did
Not what you imagined-though! No
I discovered behind the insecurity of immaturity
A beautiful stranger lurked, who but me
Naked, filled with identity, truth, light, love
In death
Transmutation to transcendence
This goes beyond the insignificance of your little egotistical theater
Grow up brother
Grow up sister
For your time of insignificance is also over
Wake up
Wake up
Wake the fuck up!
