You must claim your story to be free of it

To claim what has happened to you
How it’s made you feel
To not skip or dismiss
your pivotal turning points
your deepest bliss
and muddiest nooks

To stop rationalising
where you’ve numbed
where you’ve hidden from yourself
when you were little
and still doing so

To reveal your secrets
Through the shame
the glorious messiness
so your shadows can be lit up
by the light
of love

To claim the primal truth of your heart
from moment to moment to moment
To let go of external voices
To step into sovereignty
and wholeness rise from within
Your unapologetic truth
Your fantastic vulnerability
Your soulful desires

To claim the story of your life
in order to stop identifying with it
in order to be free of it
Free to create from a clean space
sparkling like diamonds
with the radiance of limitless dreams, possibility and abundance
held in the embrace of unshakable trust
to ascend
into your highest
soul-shaking
embodied
Queen (or King!) self

I am unafraid of your stories
I will hold them with love

Claim your story
to be free of it
