Glory comes with the price of pain



& to those who only come around for the sweet kisses and validity of their worthiness...
for the warmth and love that I have within.

They say, "Tell me only of the joy you feel, leave the rest for no one to hear. Those things leave me feeling sad & I just really don't like being reminded of that."

You have depleted me and now you are leaving since you have seen the empty pit that I am now sitting in- when the Moon is resting and recollecting.
You can't handle the pain because you haven't addressed your own; you have been too busy looking for a way out- too busy looking for the light that someone else is carrying- but now that mine has dimmed, you've packed your bags and now you're looking for the next train out. The next light-bearer. The one with more happiness to give- more love to please with.

& to those who only come around for my pain and sorrow to lift the messy life you have pushed away each day- your cheap love only lasts until I am gone.
Does the pity you feel towards me make your life seem a little bit brighter ?

Yes, I am whole.
Made both of pain & joy. I feel both equally as so.
You cannot meet me without the other and to think you could only use my body for a place to house your sorrow & burning desire- all just for a fleeting piece of solid ground to stand on- just for a moment in time for purpose and false pretense.

& to those who only want to be around for one thing- for release & relief.

Well, to those I say, sorry but no, you cannot come over tonight if you are not willing to be with me while I walk through all that no longer serves me in all my messy & upheavaling ways of burning glory.

The only way out is through and I am sure as hell not going to be waiting on the sidelines for someone to choose me for their reckoning of worth & validity.
I can do that for myself.
So, it's either we are in this together or not at all.
You can't pick & choose what you want in this relationship, we either walk through together or not at all.
I will only give my time to those who are here with me on this messy yet beautiful journey.
You are either in time or stuck waiting in line for the next train out.
May peace & forgiveness be with you in your travels & remember, wherever you go...there you are.
