SWEET DARKNESS
...You must learn one thing.
The world was made to be free in.
Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.
Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

My mind thinks--even me--even I am worthy? Something in me says no. There is still that dark place inside me that wants me to believe the lowest. This poem says it all. Anything or anyone that does not bring me alive is too small for me. I am here to come alive in the present moment. Thank you dear School for helping me.
