Bear Your True Self

IMMORTAL DIAMOND POEMS #1

~

So much fear

As if it was unbearable

~

To know

Our true selves

~

As if pain

Could destroy

~

The strength

Of the soul

~

Which endured it all

Despite the mind’s fall.

~

Inspired by ‘Immortal Diamond’ by Richard Rohr. He writes about “the human temptation to run from and deny not just the divine presence, but our own true selves, our inner destiny, our true identity“
