It’s ok to let go

Of the old story on repeat

Of that thing you could’ve done better

Of the past


It’s ok to let go of it all

In fact, it is absolutely necessary

To release yourself

On your own divine timeline

In order to truly heal


It isn’t what I had anticipated

An awakening to be

But then again

I hadn't really given it much thought



It’s painful and messy

Punctuated by unprecedented splendor

It’s silent and roaring

Bloody and intense

It’s a birth of sorts

And birthing is never easy


Similar to the last few weeks of pregnancy

Your body enormous and uncomfortable

Labor pains a welcome feeling

Your own howls music to your ears

Super-powered strength shines forth

Knowing that it will be over soon

And it will have been most worthwhile



For on the other side of the birth

A beautiful gift awaits

A precious new life

Mysterious and other worldly

And familiar all at once



I am keenly aware of the similarity

In the chorus of these two songs

The songs of childbirth and freedom



This week my cycle is heavy and painful

Perfectly aligned with the giant release

Of all of these things

I have carried for so long


I will not be surprised

If my lungs never wheeze again

When my eyesight continues to clarify

Intuition growing stronger



When my body remains full

Of new energy and new ideas

And my heart stays open

Mind expansive

Soul eternally more radiant

For this has been the birth of a lifetime

A gift of immeasurable value



And if these things fluctuate

It simply means

There is more for me to learn


Be free, beautiful being

Set yourself free

The world needs you

Brilliantly bright

And free as the wind

And only you know how to do it


FREE TO BE ME
