I yelled to God

my voice comes out like thunder

screaming, saying, 

I have the right to be, to exist, to express

I yell to you, I am angry

I am not angry at you, I am angry

against my own lies

I have been lying to myself

I have lied that I have not lied

Oh!, I hear the truth now

I'm resting in it

I am in peace

Now, here I feel the intensity of your love

Power that destroys the veils of separation

Oh! My lover! I never thought I'd get home fighting

By it, I learnt to love

Now, I flow like a river

and roar like a lion

I am soft as a baby

and sharp as a warrior

Thank you, God 

Panting, I dodge trees.

My legs carry me over uneven terrain and

branches whip my face.

I carom around corners gripping

the slender trunks.

Where am I: Who Cares?

Where am I going: Forward.

-Exultation-
