I can't believe I am hitting the publish button on this.. but I am.. I am an artist who needs an audience; and you are my audience. And this recent photograph is one of my most favorite and most vulnerable I have ever taken. When I look at it it brings tears to my eyes. This past journey for me has been epic... And I have found that TRUE LIBERATION can only happen WITHIN. Through my heart, in my being, and though self love.. have I found liberation. And this photograph captures that for me. In my awakening.. in my healing... and in my liberation. SO here is it... my gift to you... PLUS my poetry that goes with it.
Awakening
I dive into the unknown
I embrace every aspect of me
I surrender into my senses
Every breath, every touch, every movement
What do I need to be fully here?
Never again will I deny my wanting
I embrace it, steep in the question
And I surrender into my own desire.
My liberation starts within. It lies in my own heart, in my own tender care
this tenter attention awakens my senses
I drop deeply into the awareness of my body and it's human sensations
I surrender my mind to my to breath
And I let my breath breathe me
I long, I give, I surrender, I receive
I am awaken
I am fully here, fully alive
Drinking in the power of my senses... my sensuality ... my pleasure
AND I am full.
