Holding onto trust
In a broken fractured world
Can take so much strength
Strength is hard to find
In the darkest days and hours
Stillness guides the way
Take seat from the core
Turn deeply inward to see
The eternal light
Ever present glow
Home to trust, strength and knowing
Waiting to be found
Shed away layers
Let them burn up in the fire
Revealing your truth
Open the heart and
Receive the gift of being
Authentically you
Trust comes naturally
When you live from your wisdom
Then you can find peace
* A note about this poem: Haiku found me in a big way this summer and held me together and things around me felt like they were falling apart. Here, I created a longer poem made from haiku stanzas.
