Shines Too Bright – Written Monday 29th April 2024 (Aged 49)

Shines Too Bright

my intensity –
shines too bright on me
my exposure,
limits the ability of closure
but, i am still hungry
and cave dwellers
mingle with the cattle settlers
as the hooded ambition –
scales new heights
but why am i so caught –
in my own personal light?

my intensity –
shines too bright on me
my settings,
bring me to a solid knee
when does –
the inner sanctum of our being
lift the trauma veil,
and allow us to be all seeing?
when does it allow us –
to ease the soreness of feeling?
