All I’ve ever wanted is to be seen
I know I’ve been existing
But yet somehow resisting
In my state of being, remained unseen
Stayed quiet and played my role
And oh has that taken its toll
I’m finally relinquishing that control
And freeing my beautiful soul
For it’s meant to be seen by you all
I’m finally hearing the call
The call to share it with you
In all that I do
My power is simply me
Finally letting myself be
And willing to share me with thee
By setting myself free
Free of expectations
To be a certain someone
You can’t hold me to that any longer
I’ve become stronger
No longer able to hide who I am or willing to go back
It’s up to you to accept me as I am, or attack
Your attack is due to how you feel and has nothing to do with me
The sooner you figure that out the sooner you’ll set yourself free
For I finally realize with control comes all the bad
But in relinquishing it you no longer feel mad
For I am what I’ve always wanted
Before, too afraid to let myself have it
Out of fear I wouldn’t be enough
If only I’d figured it out sooner, maybe it wouldn’t have been so rough
But in the rough I’ve discovered
Who I am and I love her
Finally let her out and about among others
Spent so much time in hiding
Judging and denying
Alone and afraid
Of who I might be someday
Who am I?
Who are any of us?
It is up for you to decide!
Or continue to hide!
Mindfully Authentic
