Splitting Open

You are more powerful

Than you’ve ever been led to believe

Or let yourself believe


When it hurts like hell

And it will

Let it

When you think you might split

Open from the pain of it

Remember


You are water

You are air

You are earth

You are fire

You are made of magic stardust

And none of these ever remain static


They crack and split and crash

And thrash with their fury and might

Allow the pain

To move through you

Like water

Like air

Like fire

Like earth splitting open to create

Brand new things


You are more powerful than you know

But soon you will know

Fear not

All that you need

Is all that you already have

Within you
