Unearthing the Hurt
She had a dream.
Walking through a
tunnel of books, she saw herself.
Look! Light at the end of the tunnel.
No wait, then … she had a vision.
Walking through a tunnel
of darkness, she saw herself.
She had chosen to
go deep this time.
Chosen to unearth
a hurt buried so
deep, she tricked
herself into believing
it never happened
and was gone forever.
A hurt that caused
her to not trust myself,
to believe she was at fault
for the hurt, and
to not unconditionally
love herself.
A hurt so deep
repetetive patterns
were embedded into this life.
A hurt so deep
a piece of her soul
did eject with the trauma
so as to protect her.
Move beyond this,
that is her truest desire.
Going in, Going Deep, she is.
The unearthing has begun.
What is buried
has tried to surface
in the past, yet,
she was not ready.
Ready, she is.
The piece of soul
retrieved now,
brought along the trauma
for her to process.
Heart pain, sobbing,
choking, suffocating,
bewilderment, why, why, why,
Anger, Anger, Anger.
The pain of unearthing
and feeling this hurt
was incredibly uncomfortable,
yet, short-lived.
The freedom and liberation
in welcoming and embracing it
are immeasurable.
Free, Free, Free!
The part of the soul
ejected, she had longed to
retrieve.
This is the present moment journey.
Retrieving.
Unearthing.
Feeling.
Observing.
Letting Go.
Feeling incomplete
she has always felt.
Now she knows why.
The cycle is nearly complete,
She loves you.
She loves herself.
She loves all of herself.
She loves the darkness.
She loves the shadows.
She loves the light.
She loves all of herself.
She loves herself.
She loves you. -2017 Camilla Downs, The Journal
May we all unearth all that holds us back. Allow it, feel it, and release it …. I mean this was so horrible a piece of my soul ejected and took it with her so that I would not even know it happened or remember it. Yet, it was still encoded and holding me back. It was a soul retrieval that brought the trauma back as I reunited with the piece of my soul that had ejected. I was ready for it …. xoxoxo
Blessings,
See It. Share It. BE IT … Spread Love Everywhere You Go!
