Reclaim

Reclaim by Christopher Ross Livingstone 

For way too long now

We've suppressed the unexpressed 

But what good did it do? 

Internally leaving

Unable to reach out 

To touch and to be held by another 

The untold damage of the unspoken sensation

beyond word or measure 

From one heart beat to another

We've become lost to authenticity 

To ourselves and to nature

But to let it be expressed 

Internally makes us more connected 

The time now has come 

To remove those obstacles 

With head, heart and soul 

Balance and connection 

Speak your expressions

State your intention

Reclaim your life

From the seedlings to the root

You'll root anew

Ever growing and healing 

You'll come from darkness 

Reclaimed your light

I like the hope this poem of yours inspires to its readers. We sure could use more of this in these bleak days we live in. Thank you, Christopher, for sharing your work.
