Abstention
By: Jessica Chase
The tension pushes, pulls, tugs in my core.
Breathe, meditate, calm this tension with anxiety, with love.
What lessons is the universe trying to teach me?
Testing my sense of self.
Testing my loyalty to light.
Words fly from every direction like an intersection.
Green light - positive thoughts, words of encouragement.
Red light - gossip, betrayal.
Stop. Listen. Learn.
Refrain from participation or contribution to the negativity.
Who am I?
Who do I want to be?
Breathe in, breathe out.
Growth, forgiveness, healing.
An endless cycle of a soul seeking enlightenment.
Actions speak louder than words.
