Anima

Full of shame when others notice you
But embracing the moment,
When I do..
When alone, you and me,
Are surrounded only,
By your feminine energy

Our rituals, so necessary indeed,
Raise in me a fear so deep,
That it fills my heart with doubt
Questioning if,
Your presence is allowed

I get scared,
When I ask for what you mean
But remain relieved,
When the answer vanishes in your steam,
caused by the rage of this archetype,
who is forced into darkness,
and trying its best to survive

And as much as I hurt you
by shutting you out,
and leaving you lonesome,
and full of self doubt
this is the only way,
to carry on another day,
Without feeling the urge,
To pray you away
