Through The Mirror Of Consciousness I See Myself

from Notes On Healing and Clarity by Erin Elizabeth Wehrenberg

/

lyrics

What is it about my confidence and my independence that bothers
you so?
What discomforts are reflected to you about yourself when you absorb
the ease with which I walk through my life?
Is it the way I do not confine myself to boxes but, rather, exist as seemingly
contradictory things at once that enrages you?
I will not fit the preconceived box you built for me.
I will not surrender into the shallow labels you throw at me.
I will not allow you to run your privilege at me.
Why is this so hard for you to accept?
The way I peacefully exist bothers you so much, the only way you
know how to respond to me is by calling me a name.
Who is the one with the problem here?
It has never been about me. It has always been about you.
