Growing and Growing Up

Our everyday perceptions
Not necessarily misconceptions
Yet all that is taken to be true
Gets erased from the view
Something happens to mess it up
I call it in a way growing up

———–

You label something to be love
A paradigm of sense of Belonging
You realize all it was was longing
As you start to become the Be
That is when you see it for what it is
There is a lot of holding up
In this kind of growing up

————

For the once contained
Is now the container
The love is refined and redefined
The more spacious the container
More warmth there is for all kind
Yes it is all about growing and growing up

  1. Beautiful poem…….sometimes we just grow up without growing inwards……..the vessel become far from the contained self, and that’s just messed up…….we must fill ourselves with things that make us grow and not put things just because we have grown up…….again, i hope i am making some semblance of sense……
