It is hard to come to terms with love
that strange feeling you did not experience
nor felt when everybody else seemed to know it well.
That strange feeling you hear you were supposed to receive
but you feel like you never did
or at least you did not receive it enough.
That weird feeling others show to each other
but you do not even know how to be with.
That absurd feeling of noticing how others
like and love you more than you do to yourself.
That strange, weird and absurd feeling of love.
Wipe your tears away and see with more clarity
How love surrounds you
How love holds you
How love heals
Wipe your tears away so you can see love
At your doorstep waiting to be seen
Waiting for acknowledgment
Waiting for an invitation
from you to come in
Wipe your tears away and take a few breathes in
As you resist the idea of running away from love
As you plan your next clever escape
from loving yourself
As you sabotage yourself
again
in loveless temptation
Wipe your tears away and stay present with love
Create space to feel the love from others
Very deep within
breathe in love
Stay with it, get to know it, feel it
Feel it’s flavor and texture
Feel it’s intensity and generosity
Feel the way back to sanity
By the way of the love you deserve
Resist the fear of love
I wonder about those who taught you to fear it?
I wonder about those who taught you this bad lesson?
Tell me who were those who didn’t understand love?
Who said you didn’t deserve it?
And, please, grieve their lies of loveless love
Let yourself be loved by Life
Let yourself be loved by Earth
Let yourself be loved by Fire
Let yourself be love by the Universe
Let yourself be loved by those
who have countless times proven to you
Unconditional Love
Wipe your tears away
every time you reject love
because you cry deep within
every time you don’t give yourself the chance
every time you whisper to yourself
that you don’t deserve it
in spite of having loved
and longed for love
You know betrayal and lies
You know defeat and shame
You know pain and sorrow
You know very well how it feels
When you aren’t loved
So your doors are closed to love
Since you are too busy with the familiar
loveless and fear
It can be painful to receive
that which is unknown
It can be terrifying to love life
with open wings
It might prove you wrong
again
about you not deserving love
And it might be right about
how much you are loved
And how much you have invested
in your own unworthiness
Wipe your tears away
and know it is going to be hard
but open your eyes and see a new reality
open your eyes and see that
See that
You are loved by many
You are loved to pieces
You are loved
that strange feeling you did not experience
nor felt when everybody else seemed to know it well.
That strange feeling you hear you were supposed to receive
but you feel like you never did
or at least you did not receive it enough.
That weird feeling others show to each other
but you do not even know how to be with.
That absurd feeling of noticing how others
like and love you more than you do to yourself.
That strange, weird and absurd feeling of love.
