Response/Ability

the game we play
is let's pretend
and pretend
we're not
pretending

we choose to
forget
who we are
and then forget
that we’ve
forgotten

who are we really?

the center
that watches
and runs the show
that can choose
which way
it will go

the I AM
consciousness
that powerful
loving perfect
reflection
of the cosmos

but in our attempt
to cope with
early situations
we chose or were
hypnotized into
a passive position

to avoid
punishment
or the loss of love
we chose to deny
our
response/ability
pretending that

things just
happened
or that we were
being controlled
taken over

we put ourselves
down
and have become
used to this
masochistic
posture
this weakness
this indecisiveness

but we are
in reality
free
a center
of cosmic energy

your will
is your power

don’t pretend
you don’t have it

or you won’t
