I’m Leaving

(An intention) by Ochune

I’m leaving

The arid deserts of fear,

Strewn with carcasses of perceived failures.

Amid the heavy sands of judgment.

I’m leaving 

The shadows of deeply held trauma

And previously unhealed wounds of loss.

I’m leaving 

The creases of dividing separation,

The intricate folds of limitation and programs.

I’m leaving

So I can thrive

Ride the exhilarating winds of freedom

Crest the ripples of widening expansion and joy

Be the luminosity of the soul!

I’m leaving 

Not because I reject all that I am and have been

But because I long to plumb the depths of

Magical caverns of higher truths

Embody the unity I sense 

Somewhere within reach.
