Chelan Harkin: To Not Hide From Ourself

 To Not Hide From Ourself

To not hide from ourself
Is to learn that every wound
Within us
We once feared
Was a permanent fixture
Can open itself to be
Infused with love.
And in this giving up
Of these storehouses
Of distance
In our being
We for so long
Refused to know,
We are edified,
We are made more whole,
We experience a deep homecoming
And communion
With ourself and our one lover,
This ravishing universe.

— Chelan Harkin
