Wings..

You were born with wings.

Why prefer to crawl through life?

Oh soul,
you worry too much.
You have seen your own strength.
You have seen your own beauty.
You have seen your golden wings.
Of anything less,
why do you worry?
You are in truth
the soul, of the soul, of the soul.

Your task is not to seek for love,

but merely to seek and find

all the barriers within yourself

that you have built against it.
