A Beautiful Place

A Beautiful Place

My soul

Is at odds

With my eyes

Sometimes

These things

They lie in harmony

But, today

They tell different stories

I’m in a beautiful place

But it’s not always beautiful

Not what I see

With my eyes

But, what I feel

In my being

I’m in a beautiful place

But these things

They do not go unnoticed

They are true

Very real

Painfully raw

They start subtle

And they inch

A little further

Now they are

And always were

A part of me

My eyes

Now harmonious

With my soul

Understanding these things

And their place

In life

They are a part of me

They always will be
