Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Every mistake
The ache, the ache.
Your noise follows me
To the ends of my tree,
I look down and I pray for release;
So far away
The dark close to the day
Even then, this onslaught will not cease.
Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Wisdom intake
The ache, the ache.
I hear all your pain
In your thunderous reign
And I ‘get’ that you’re reflecting mine;
But I cannot deal
With relentless appeals
Don’t you see there’s a creative line?
Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Barriers break
The ache, the ache.
I’m supposed to sit still,
Study each bitter pill,
Emerge stronger, on some higher plane;
Not react to the fuss
(All this ‘trivial’ stuff)
That somehow gets stuck in my brain.
Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Pathetic fake
The ache, the ache.
My eyes stuck on the prize
Shrugging off this disguise:
There’s a Wonder Woman in this dust.
I just wish I had known
‘Fore these babies were born –
But I needed their guidance to trust…
Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Internal quakes
The ache, the ache.
Falling awake
The ache, the ache;
Too much at stake
The ache, the ache.
I am really being affected by listening to Dr. Shefali Tsabary’s book The Conscious Parent on Audible. I feel important (and long overdue) changes are afoot 🙂
(Don’t delve into Tsabary’s work without hankies, a journal/notebook and a willingness to look your demons straight in the eye. You have been warned!!)
