The poem below was inspired by The Shadow Effect movie in combination with my own spiritual growth and self reflection.
One of my main takeaways from the movie was how important it is that for each of us to truly forgive ourselves in a very deep personal way.
Most of us do not ‘really‘ acknowledge our perceived negative parts of our personality, The Shadow Effect brings to our attention that this part of us, when discovered, acknowledged, and reflected upon can become some what of a positive piece of our personality. It can and will add facets to our self understanding that we never considered. And changing this negative to a partial positive, will help us find more happiness in our own lives.
When I thought deeply about my own self forgiveness, I was inspired to write the poem below.
My Child
My Child…
You’d never have allowed yourself, never forgiven yourself,
never have set yourself free.
Never have deemed yourself worthy, had I not prepared a path for you
to follow and held the light for you to see.
____________________________________________
Only within the light of my reflection, within the safety of my never ending,
never changing — love could you see.
Could you open your eyes wide enough, to contemplate your brightness/
ponder yourself being what I’ve always known you to be.
____________________________________________
You See My Children…
You are on a journey…. to eventually becoming…
eventually becoming just like me
An angel of Light in the Darkness… that shines brightly…
so bright all will one day see
____________________________________________
This is my gift to you… You had been designed from the beginning
to be just like me.
Created in my image, crafted from my hands, my master work
my reflection – the way I created you to be.
____________________________________________
But our common attributes you could not see through the cloudy, dull
reflection you saw yourself to be…
Through me… Only then… Would you gaze upon your own reflection, and
see the beauty that I see…
For I am perfection! — The highest reflection of God!
What you COULD and WILL ALWAYS be

This poem is a continuation from the first poem, My Child.
The page that contains the initial poem, explains my thoughts and why I felt inspired to write these two poems, which is a little odd, because I don’t write poems.
My Child… Your Gift
My Child…
Again I will show you, just how remarkable are thee
how much I love you and that I created you, especially for me
All the gifts I have bestowed upon, each one of you
is completely individual you see
No two of you the same, an exquisite artwork made personally by me
my great masterpiece, my best work, so beautifully perfect are thee
____________________________________________
And now for your gift, further proof how valuable My Child must be
exists in your soul, the divine spark, to be a creator like me
If blessed with a soul mate who is so devoted to thee
executing the plan to perfection, who loves you and who also loves me
Who will treat you like My Princess Child, but on earth can it be?
of course – all is possible, My Children listen carefully to me
