נָתַתִּי רוּחִי בְּךָ וְאֶת חַיֶּית

You’ve been through a lot
A tiring journey into yourself
Allowing Soul and matter to come together
This caused you to be protective
Of yourself, your thoughts, your privacy, and your heart
Of your body, the vessel of your soul
You’re a woman on a journey
With each step, you’ve acquired baggage
You collected, gathered, and took
And you know
It isn’t easy for you to let go
To be and to give
You need quiet because you deserve it
Life taught you that
Not everything that looks good
Is the best for you
And maybe you aren’t really
Looking to let go
But looking to empty baggage
Empty your day
Simply throw on the backpack
And smile, be excited.
Yes, it’s hard for you to get excited
But you know there are things you learn alone
And things you learn from the touch of another
It sits inside you, kicking
Thinking about it a lot?
About what will happen
When you give your heart
Your privacy, your knowledge, the truth
Inside you, inside your cocoon
That life created
There’s a girl
A girl who wants to break free
To love to dance to scream
To go wild
Just to allow
Without getting hurt
When you trust another
It’s not at all taken for granted, for you
Because you’ve learned to trust yourself
But to trust another, that’s a different story
Slowly slowly
The stillness will come when you decide
Like life taught you
It all begins with you
You turn on the light and also turn it off
It’s all you
