Wings of Solace

I thought I would share this with you. Finding a way through whatever is happening at the moment, darkness fading and light feeling stronger. I begin to see my gold shimmering softly once again.
Here is a journey I went into today.


Wings of Solace

As the Solace drips away
And peace seems lost in the darkness
Fear seems so powerful
And the heart, kept small,
Is gasping to breathe once again into fullness.
Where did all the signposts go?
As everything I have built seems to stand in fog
Where is my truth?
As my ego dies
I let my identity die too
Who is this 'I' I have created?
A monster of my own being?
A result of all my experiences
Imprinted into the network of my body.
Seeing where this 'I' has come from
and knowing that not all of her is me.
Am I ready to let go even more?
Am I ready to say goodbye to the comfort of misguidance?
I have missed me
All my life.
And now as the layers get deeper and deeper
And I witness their unfolding,
Fear tries to keep me blanketed in wings of solace.
But where is my heart?
How do I know where my heart is when I am still in the game, 
In the foggy programming of yesterdays schedule.
Held in the fiery cradle
The blanket burns away
Scolding the awakening
Tempting resistance
Feeling into the fire
Feeling the burning
Broken embers falling
The Phoenix rises.
Fire feeling the raw heart
Rising warmth
Igniting the gold flow
Through every vein
Reconnecting the pure golden energy
So I can 'live' again
My old, heavy broken wings fall into the abyss. 
I begin to see and feel how heavy they have been hanging on my back,
The dark shadow that I mistook for being part of my self.
They carried me far.
I honor them with gratitude in my goodbye.
It is now time to fly high
High
With my golden wings.
With one final glance below into Hades
To see the old wings, resting in peace.
My voice carries me into the light
I can say goodbye
I can
I can fly into my power
Into the unknown space
As the golden honey rush flows back 
Into my heart
I see the sun shining 
Energising my soul. 
My true soul
The one that was always here.
So much love
Breathing and relaxing 
Into the space of a new journey, 
A beginning
Simply being.
