Affirmation

Today, I affirm myself.
In this moment, I embrace myself.
In this heartbeat, I become myself.

I stare with stern eyes
into the hidden reaches of my soul
and snare my deepest truths.

And reaching out to me
from my darkest pockets of soul-shards
is my own throbbing light

reaching out to me.
