StoneTo Water

Tormented my soul on the cusp of madness.
Buried under stone where my heart is.
The burden to heavy for me on my own.
If I leave it untouched, I'll never find home.
Behind the stone I see an eagle,
born to fly with grace...so regal.
But trapped is my majestic beauty.
It saddens my heart to witness such cruelty.
Why, when you were born to soar?
You remain confined to your prison wall?
Outside the sky blue and endless.
Begs to admire your magnificence.
I ask for strength to lift the boulder.
An angel appears over my shoulder.
You are the answer that you seek,
all you need is within your reach.
Don't shy your exquisiteness,
from the heavens to see.
A rare unique diamond, you were born to be.
But you remain trapped to blind to see.
Fighting against resistance,
your wings remain clipped.
Flight births acceptance,
and growth follows this.
.
The ego an experience,
of the human collective.
A gift, though it challenging,
requires a new perspective.
Stone to water you can transition.
Determination fuels your mission.
You call out for transformation,
but you the slave to your own damnation.
Transcendence can bring you liberation,
but requires from you cultivation.
Catch your mind, for it your servant.
No longer ruled by a fierce tyrant.
Be grateful for the gift of illusion.
For you create your own conclusion.
Duality between the self and the I,
essential for a human to experience life.
Not just awareness, now living the pleasure.
A perfect compliment to each other.
For when we learn to recognise,
the internal process with clear eyes.
We can choose to learn and grow,
It's up to us who runs the show.
The earth bound ego, or ones higher self?
A reflective question to ponder on first.
For ever changing beings us all,
limited only by the fears that claw.
To spread your wings and tame the voice,
first recognise it's your choice.
Follow the guidance that speaks,
For the doubts that arise bury you deep.
Shape yourself to shift through the stone,
energy in motion your wings will fly home.
