Towards Freedom

Light the match in the dark

and see the shackles are already unlocked.

You are not tethered to misery,

(although this may feel true)

You are the keeper of the key. 

Believe in your own brokenness

That there is a healing balm.

Redeem your whole heartedness--

Your flame.

Expect the glory of the brightest light,

Carry kindness in a cup

Listen to the silence

That whispers all the time

"You are enough".
