the one who never felt
she belonged
in this strange world,
fears independence.
she asks herself:
what if
my truest self
is too different?
a new layer is revealed.
she realizes,
she is afraid of being
n o t h i n g .
specifically
the type of nothing
that appears empty
and boring to most
but actually
holds the deepest potency
of truth and wisdom.
the same wisdom
that lives in the soil
beneath our feet.
and the thing is
she isn’t afraid
of how that feels in her bones,
in fact she loves it.
but she is afraid that no one will love her
if her truest self,
unfiltered and awakened,
embodies this nothing
that almost no one notices,
but that EVERYONE is birthed from.
