POEM // Reasons

How many reasons
Over so many seasons
Do I carry on this journey
That challenge my destiny
What right do I have
To make my excuses
I’ve overcome so many
Unjust abuses
My hard fought freedom
Has been won through loss
My eternal soul
Can bear any cross
When I wake
With eyes anew
I will forgive my indulgence
And find a new way through
Tears may be shed
As I let those reasons go
They no longer serve me
When I am in flow
Nourished by faith
And dreams of possibility
I dance my dreams
With fervour and humility
With reasons shed
I’ve paid my fee
So now it’s time
To truly be
