She is Transformational
Stop! She cried to the universe
Stop! She cried to the world
Stop! She cried to the stars above
Stop! She cried inside
All through her life
The continual flow
Of how she should behave
Of how she should grow
The incessant telling
The constant decree
Of how she should act
Of how she should be
She started to question
Some of the words
Some of the actions
Some of the blurb
She started to wonder
She started to see
The truth was unfolding
Making her uneasy
Inside her mind
A different place formed
Quietly seeking
For her to transform
Into the person she wanted to be
Into the woman on purpose you see
She didn’t at the time
Realise her journey
Would take so much courage
Would take time to just be
With all of her questions
With all of her whys
With all of her worries
With all of her finds
The time in her cocoon
Of intimacy
Was time getting herself
Perfectly ready
All of the setbacks
All of the hard times
Were part of the journey
To quiet her mind
For her to discover
True comfort, true peace
That the same age old stories
Of ancient telling
Were saying the same things
Her soul was trying
To let her uncover
To let her design
In her way of speaking
In her way of mind
She will never be ready
She will always transform
For she realises learning
Is for what she was born
But she takes all her knowledge
She takes her gifts wide
To help others find their path
To help others peace find
Although she will never be perfect
You’ll find
That the transformational journey
Is treasure inside
Once you accept that
Once you can see
Then it is time to step out
To be all you can be
For what use is transforming
The beauty to see
If it is only discovered
Between you and me
So reveal your true self
Find the courage inside
To share your true beauty
To share your true mind
To share your gifts fully
To live life to the full
Transformation becoming
The Infinite Flow
