Sacred Animal

And that sensation of me being pregnant?

It was all this weight

The stuck waters of holding love for myself

And not for others

That survival mode

Keeping people at an arm’s distance

holding all my power

With no outlet

Now I became a divine animal

That water runs through me

To the outside

And others

There is no real danger

I can show my gem

No thief on sight

I can bark

When you tresspass my limits

I can

Come back to the heart

When you retreat

As if nothing happened

N o   s t o r i e s

I can take care of myself

And everything that arrives

Is here to pass
