Poem: Indecisiveness Is My Muse
I wrote this poem as I was reflecting on how, as a society, we see the things that are wrong with how we show up in the world, forgetting to see the attributes and blessings that are in the ways of...
being that we’ve been told we should change. What if, we’re simply moving at our own pace? What if the way we showed up in that moment was exactly how it was meant to be? What would the world, our world, be like if we stopped trying to change and fix how we are and chose to love it instead?
You all think I’m just confused
Does it amuse?
That it doesn’t seem like I know what to do
Well, my indecisiveness is my muse
How she teaches me not to obey the rules
Not play a fool
Thinking I have to control, know it all
That without direction I’m just some small girl
Getting lost in this big wide world
When really I take my time
To hear the lessons in my rhymes
The direction from the part of me that is wise
That already knows
That is already betrothed
To the path that is her fullest
That reflects her joy
Her love
Her hearts truth
The I, that knows what to do
The self that soothes the mind
When I find myself taking too much on
I can rest where I belong
The home in my heart
I have at last found this place
Blessing me with grace
I know that waiting is not a waste
Being patient is not just a phase
But a practice
Where in the stillness I drop my tactics
So that I can fully open to magic
So, no I’m not indecisive
I’m just getting excited attuning to all the possibilities
At all the timelines weaving serendipity
Into my reality
My decision not to choose is not a travesty
I’m not a victim to my conditioned fate
Because I’m never running late to my destiny
I have already arrived
And I enjoy to spend some of that time
Playing with all that could be
Feeling all that my third eye can see (to learn about the third eye - https://www.verywellfit.com/what-is-the-third-eye-3566789)
Knowing I am all that I need
I don’t seek to fill a hole
Or listen to what I am told
I don’t fit into your mould of how I should move
Because my indecisiveness is my muse
Not a curse
Not something to change
But how my soul paves the way
So, I’m no longer afraid
And for anyone who feels the same
Remember to follow your own timing
Without buying into the rush
Trust that your guidance knows
The moments to row
And the moments to rest
Because this life isn’t a test
A race to be won
A thing to get right
Something to fight
This life is experiencing yourself as all that you are
So don’t starve yourself of your truth
Following how someone else has said you should move
Listen to all that you already know
Because you are already home
There’s no where you have to go
Only witness the seeds that you sow
Allowing them freely grow
with love,
Emma
