I no longer cut my myself on my corners.
They have softened with a life lived.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
I write my poetry in vibrant streams,
Sparkling precious gems on a blank page.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
I practise yoga from a chair - old age
And arthritis limits all my movements.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
I am a light bringer, full of bright love,
Forgiveness, compassion, and kindness.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
I have become reliably informed.
Recognising the truth from the fake.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
I surround myself with positive friends,
Who uplift and enrich my inner life.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
Comfortable in my own skin
I reach out to my inner wisdom.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
My negative ego's voice is quietened,
And I recognise its bitter stirrings.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
Depression is banished to the edges,
Where I know its creeping ploys.
Now, I breathe mindfully.
Every day has become a blessing,
My heartfelt gratitude glows strongly,
Now, I breathe mindfully.
