paradox ~internal
syllables of self-sovereignty and attachment
I finally realized what right feels like and what feels right pleasure, principle I decide what feels good for me my council, my person, I’ll do what I please, paradox ~internal I’ll set mySelf free
I'm just warming up
and then
I came home
to myself,
the weight of my existence
and birthright
planted firmly in my chest
Roots I carry with me,
untouchable without consent
I won’t be moved
again,
not without my own two feet
under me
My voice will fill
the cracks and echoes
(of what you stole)
You’re free to go,
and so am I
~but on my own accord
this time
It didn’t break me,
I needed more room
to grow
without (you)in orbit
(@hd)
I will love you
with an open hand
and mean it
I know too well
the grip of control,
a suffocating hold
Let me breathe
into myself
and settle
into my own knowing
You’re welcome here,
under my skin
But I am mine firstsovereign
I am a sovereign nation
Captain of my own
Self-directed life
All shades
from black to white
Nature, mercy
Hold me ~closer
and I might let you through
the doorway of my mind
's eye
