Inner Compass

You can mount an avalanche of sickening negativity for all that my mere presence seems to elicit from your heart and mind.

Yet I will still stand in the hue of a deep and sacred fire that burns in the caves of my soul.

And mostly I may give a nod of knowing as I see your struggle as clairvoyant as a rain drop hanging on a flower petal.

Often I will send a grin of love and support as I let the wind carry me past.

Onward I will travel to the ephiphany of my life walk having already past the threshold of that which I see.

My focus is pointed to my work of the day, my matter at hand.

Trust me the rumblings of the echoes of negativity, suffering and pain that trickle out toward me from others is no adversary to the commands I must follow from within.
