Poem (Untitled)

April is National Poetry Month so in honor of that I am sharing
one of my favorite pieces written many years ago. It's fitting
for me to begin posting with this poem because it serves as a
reminder of what this writing journey involves: sharing my truths
(smile). I do hope you enjoy and would love to hear from you with
your ideas on what the title should be! Please comment with your
thoughts and feedback below.

Thanks for reading and coming along for the ride!

Truth called me out
told me not to stay
in the same place
never again can I go back
that way

hearing and seeing
but not knowing
because now I know too much.

Truth beckoned me away
didn't want me to remain
unchanged
in place
the same
withering from ignorant inspiration
and partial information
half-truths

not getting the full story
showed me
there was still more to learn

Truth heard my Spirit's hungry
yearning
and told me to break free
for my life depends on it
now I'm running

the wind carries me
lifts me up
my head raised to the sky
feels the first drops
of rain fall
upon my eyes
washing over me

getting heavier
with each step
I make forward
into the light of All-Truth.
