let it glow

'instead of blaming the darkness, you bring in the light'
a new earth by eckhard tolle

i could spend my days looking back
and blaming
honestly i could write books
but i don't want to fill myself up
with anger and rage
or blame and guilt
i want to release it
to be filled with love
and let that light
a pure energy
radiate around me
i'm still figuring this out
how to let go of my ego
find a place of true peace
where i don't impose my will on anyone
but i also don't feel like i am being controlled
or run over
because the truth is
some people just don't know
they can't see their ways
the manipulation
and pain they inflict on others
they keep going along
selfishly
blindly
thinking this all centers around them
and no one else
it's their story
and they create it with as much drama
as one can muster

...

so i breathe in
and i breathe out
i release
i sit in silence
i take in as much nature as i can
and i hope that in the quietest of moments
i will feel his spirit wrapping me in love

...

and i carry on
changed
choosing to bring the light
