Love Poem: Self-Discovery

Self-Discovery

I am Love, Love is I
Freefalling, below the sky
Slow rotting, I know it's time
Unthawing, my countless eyes
Still wonder, who am I
Authentic, no disguise
Heart empty, I hope it's lies
I illuminate the skyline with truth that multiplies
High... My pinnacle
Heroic by nature but I brand myself a criminal
No escape from the same reality that's killing you
I lived with a frozen heart, crystalline like an igloo
Pure pristine, the frost drips like mildew
I scream for my ice queen, nameless she remain
Scarred and wounded, I realize our hearts beat the same
Your pain is mine, vice versa
Rewind, focus those beautiful eyes between your heart and spine
Lean into forgotten emotions like scattered proponents and emerge divine
For my past, I forgive and apologize
The fire in my chest so intense, that past version of myself would commit suicide
I awaken do not fret, without a sweat I unhypnotize
Reunified with my higher mind, pure clarity never again blind
