Your words are damaging only to yourself

For they feed your ego and nothing else

I don't take them personal for they are not me

I separate from the human that which is seen

Residing in the Being to stay awake

Resting in its bosom my soul's at stake

Letting go and living for today

I forgive all that has left me dismayed

For this is the only path to truth

I used to see myself in you

This is love, this is what's true

I am disconnected now not feeling a thing

Only I the Being make my heart sing

Happiness cannot be bestowed

It is not given; it is not owed

Searching deep within is where it can be found

Waiting for your grasp releasing it's bound

For this is the only path to truth

I apologize so for not understanding

For blaming you always reprimanding

For being unreasonable and emotional

Not realizing I was being irrational

Doing all things causing strife

Not just for you, but in my own life

Unconscious to the hurt I'd caused

My new found spirit was so very lost

For this is the only path to truth

I ask for forgiveness, but I know it won't come

Until I forgive, thine will be done

For this is the only path to truth
