What is it that you truly desire?
Deep in your soul.
Beyond the touch.
Warmth on your skin.
What is your essence?
Vibrating through your core.
Flowing through your veins.
Pumping inside your heart.
What is your deepest darkest secret?
You locked away, hid and tried to drown.
Afraid to ever let it roam free.
Losing grasp of your true power.
What happens when you finally let it all go?
The pain, the fear, the shame.
Accept and embrace the one inside you.
Rise, ever so powerful and free.

My season is coming.
Time to transform.
To be reborn.
I feel my power.
Awakening again.
Rising.
I’ve waited a long time.
To reach.
To feel.
Change is coming.
I welcome it.
Embrace it.
Fears are fading.
I feel ready.
Watch me glow.
It’s time to die.
Be born.
Once more. -
In this lifetime,
I am the beginning
And I am the end.Through countless generations
And lifetimes of suffering
Echoing in the fibers of my soul.A burden so heavy
And immeasurable pain,
Piercing through my heart.I can feel it in my blood,
But it’s not mine to carry.
It never was.The river of torment
Flows into a lake
And stillness takes over.I am the beginning of the end
In this lifetime,
So my soul can move on.Painlessly, through light,
Enter bliss and a new era,
Releasing the past.Traveling through time and space,
Adoring the beauty around me,
Until I’m ready to come home. -
Raise the dead
To cleanse the Earth,
Leave the fair ones untouched.
In my dream
The angel looked like me
And I wondered…
Can I be fair?
Can I be divine?
Yet so cruel
And watch them die.
With a smile.

I am watching you crash against the walls of my castle.
Most likely both of us will suffer some damage.
But in the end, you will be the one to crumble into pieces.
That is because you come at me with pointless hatred.
It is a weapon too weak to defeat a sincere heart.
Too fragile to stand against a powerful soul.
It is only strong in your clouded eyes.
A lonely illusion uniting the hurt and the scared.
You’re too afraid to show the world who you really are.
Hiding, never daring to savor life as it is.
Deaf and blind to the beauty around you.
So determined to destroy those different than you.
You might even win some battles.
But the victory in this war is mine.
I shall rebuild with light and love. -
You’ve looked down on the gentle heart.
But can you stand against the flames once it’s on fire?
The burning embers light up the sky.
Ablaze is your soul.
You thought that being strong meant pushing your emotions away.
But can you take it when they come back flooding in?
Waves come crashing down.
In the depths is your heart.
You’d rather die than admit you were ever wrong.
But where will you hide when your mistakes will come knocking?
The walls close in and slowly crumble.
In the rubble is your truth.
You felt as if you were the ruler, owner of all the lands under your feet.
But what will happen when you see the shackles on your wrists?
The cage shuts.
Inside, on the knees, are you. -
Let it go, be light.
Don’t hide anymore.
It’s not yours to carry.
You’re meant to be light and strong.
Full of love and life.
Let it go, be light. -
Written in the stars.
Faded in the vast darkness.
Sown in dreams.
Reborn anew to shine on Earth. -
I am so incredibly beautiful.
I didn’t even realize this… for so long.
The vastness of my soul.
The immense power.
Shoved in a box.
Chained by fears and false beliefs.
Trapped in a body deemed imperfect by society’s beauty standards.
Made to feel less than.
Failing to see my strength.
The choice to take it all off.
Afraid to simply exist.
Not fitting the “norm”.
Seeking a deep connection.
Below the shallows.
Beyond the skies.
Behind mirrored reflections.
I have so much love to give.
But I know now I should give it all to myself first.
And stop forgetting who I am.
Trying to blend in as if I’m not a bright star.
I am the creator of my world.
The writer of my story.
The painter of my pictures.
The composer of my melody. -
I am me.
If asking something of you is not enough, I will have to show you why I’ve asked for it to begin with.
If explaining something to you is not enough to make you understand, just sit back and watch me.
And I know that even then you may not understand because people like me might have never existed in your world before.
But don’t judge and don’t hate. I don’t even need you to understand everything.
Just see me from the inside and respect my choices.
I am me.
It’s only sad that people have to struggle so much just to be themselves.
And I don’t believe that my generation will see the day when people like me will be truly free.
However, giving up is not an option for me.
I will always reach out for what I want.
I just want to be happy.
