If you find you are
losing yourself.

If you find you can’t
remember
happy times as a child –
your favourite sweets,
your mother’s love,
your father’s protection.

If you can’t remember
feeling safe.

Take a look at that man
and ask…
is he really good for me,
or have I lost myself
in his own weakness,
in his own ego,
in his self strife.

Go back to that safe place,
it is still there in your heart.
Immerse yourself.
And then let go.

Stand alone.

And save your own life.
And save your soul.

It is not selfish,
it is essential.

Or he will take you
down with him.
And you will be lost.
