VIcitmizing Myself

 New realization:

I hide from what I imagine is expected of me


Sleeping soundly and awaking gently

One of my favorite times

Slowly the dreams are fading and

I am noticing this other reality

My world in this life

In this body


Sometimes I luxuriate in that space

For quite some time

Half asleep, half awake

Thoroughly delighted

Honoring the dreams

Respecting the awakening


Unless for some reason

I feel the need to hide or avoid

Something coming up soon

Something I imagine I need to do

Or how I imagine I need to be


Truth is told


And, as I turn over to greet the day

I find it is nothing like what I feared

The dogs are nestled all snug in the bed

While I have facinating thoughts

Bouncing around in my head


Waking now

I release those

Harsh or demanding thoughts

Those perpetrating fears

Their turn to sleep for awhile

I am arising and 

Enjoying my day!
