UNBLIND YOUR EYES
Remove those shades of self-rebuke
Unblind your eyes
Raise the curtain to your soul
To reveal the depth within
To see the goodness and finery
Scold-not mistakes of unchangeable history
They merely conveyed knowledge for growth
But entomb those depressing seeds of error past
That they may no longer sprout and poison
Step out of the confines of a shadowed self
Measure not miscalculations
Judge not the spoils of blunder
For they are universal, owned by all
And unworthy of retention
Limit the travels of your thoughts
To places of joyful gladness
Delight for all the love imparted
Rectitude and honor for love returned
Integrity for your strength of character
View with wide-open eyes the love streaming toward you
Expose your heart and draw it in with vigor
Knowing the flow is unending
That you are loved beyond measure
That you matter
That you are needed
That indeed you own a legacy
That tears of love given and received are truth
And lasting
Unblind those eyes of yours
See through new spectacles
And view with veracity and pride your reality of love shared
Then smile for the truth of self
