~ The Soul Steps In ~

How many roles
have you created for your self
living them out to abide by
what has been expected
of you by others?

How many times
have you lost your self
in the belief that
those roles are truly
who you are?

Until the overwhelm
of maintaining the roles
of who you are not
amidst the noise of the audience
becomes too much to bear

Feeling compelled to step off
the time worn stage
out of the costumed role
that was never yours
you step into the arms of silence

From within this silence
your sacred Soul steps in
pouring forth your true essence
with a joyous passion for life
inviting you to create anew.
