For The Solitary Heart

Exempt me from this anguish

I strive to seek another realm

Where prejudice is illusionary

And humanity occupies swift distinction.

Where pity is not a substitute for compassion

And strength reigns

Centering all

Resolutely within.

Where pretense is an impostor

Unable to hijack your senses

And jealousy wilts

In the aura of this space.

Where judgement is just

In discrimination

And reason

And left to the Supreme

Unfettered.

Let me be swallowed

Into the channels of this haven

And dwell unrestrained

Without fear

Of abandonment

Or disintegration.

Let this render refuge

For the Solitary Heart

Where love can ride the seas of the Soul

Bound into the skies of the mind

Conquer the passion of this being

And recede into the serenity of the Spirit

Soak up this brilliance

Shining on the inside

Be fortified in its calm

And reside here

Reinforced.

Your Love Was Never Mine To Own

You spoke to my heart by your smile and touch

Your seeds of affection here were sown

It took me so long to realize, my love

Your love was never mine to own.

You'd sigh each time I'd stroke your hair

Like it meant something special to you

Was it my imagination? Was I mistaken?

Was it even remotely true?

You'd hold me so close when we'd embrace

So much closer than what was normal

Why does it feel so different now?

So impersonal, so strained, so terribly formal?

Your eyes would speak, they'd carry a depth

Of a closeness never else shown

Why are they so intensely empty now?

Was that understanding purely on loan?

How can you just halt what you're feeling?

How can you just erase it so clean?

It makes me wonder if it was even real

How can it de-exist? How can it never have been?

I couldn't have fallen in love with you faster

It was so expertly, so brilliantly played

You succeeded in pulling off this disaster

And still convinced me that you were betrayed

You left me to wither, to shrivel, and carry

The burden of a breaking heart

You were content slinking around in the background

Watching, uncaring, as it crumbled apart

You spoke to my heart by your smile and touch

Your seeds of affection here were sown

It took me so long to realize, my love

Your love was never mine to own.

This Unparalleled Miracle

Transparent sound

Gliding through my veins

Accompanied by the potent light

Solid in strength

Stretching out

Rivering through each particle of my being

Unseen

Through the essence of thought.

It flows

Carpeting its path

Making the winter of its trail obscure

Leaving behind a rush of prose

In beams

Smiling

As it were

To complete the oblique

And restore the splintered.

Polishing the coarse

Unrefined

And inexperienced

This Force glows

Penetrating the damaged

With its magical balm

Riding through the cracks

Soothing them

Sealing them

Healing them as it passes.

The longer it courses

Its strength builds

Incorporating the hurt and pain

That it collects along the way

Swallowing it to it's own being

Assimilated and converted

Twirling along

With this intense radiant illumination

To reverberate

Undistinguished

Gaining resolute support

Generated through the belief

That something so powerful

Truly is greater than the sum of its parts.

Each of its incarnates

Are stemmed from the same source

Together

They resonate with the brilliance of a billion suns

Shimmering over a billion galaxies

Individually

They blaze with the same intensity

No less equal

Than each stream bundled into one.

It exists to exist,

Without substitute,

To surround.

It can be split only to remain undivided

Breathing itself gently

Into the hearts that care - 

Willingly.

It pervades each particle of its surroundings

Serenading Life

Its Truths

And quintessence

Through its mystery.

How it functions

Is known

Yet

It is discovered

In each instance of its rise

Unwittingly.

We may never conquer it

But it will always render victory

With its surrender

And transform us

Inside out

Each one

Uniquely

Through its presence

Through its existence

Through its experience

This Unparalleled Miracle called

Love.

Just Let Me...

Let me sink into you arms

Feel your warmth

Your tenderness

Your quiet passion

Seeping from your heart

And wrap me in your universe

For this lifetime

For this moment.

Let me breathe you in

Swim in your essence

And transcend the physical

To be intertwined

With your love

To be pulled into your gravity

And remain magneted to you

Fused at the heart.

Let me feel no distance

Nor emotion

Nor thought

Just let me be suspended in your arms

And feel the warmth of your skin build

Your heartbeat melt with mine

And the world around us

Whisper itself out of sight.

Lets just float in this moment

Where time holds its breath

And all that matters is

You and me.

Let me blend with your touch

And witness the lush, gentle softness of your affection

Just let me be close to you

Where space runs out

Where we can close our eyes

And all that's left is us

And Now.

Let me experience this Forever

Here

Enveloped in your arms

Hidden in your caress

Shining through each breath

Revealed by your love.

Let me be close to you

Feel your rich intensity

And live this dream.

Let me breathe you in

Deep and slow

And be drenched in your care.

Just let me sink into your arms

Be loved by you

And love you

The way it was meant to be.

Spiritual Revolution

Dont you ever feel consumed by guilt

Or fear, or anger, superstition or greed

For these aren't the materials of which you are built

Nor the ones you should want or need

Stop worrying about fitting in or blending
Hang up your fears and leave your ego on the shelf
No need to act, and you can stop pretending
Just give up control and be yourself.

That's where it begins, that's where it starts
Like a collective breath of your Soul and Essence
It's the sum and integration of all your parts
Acknowledging all the layers of your presence

It's where you'll find all your answers
The whole spectrum, unbent and true
It's natural, like music to singers and dancers
The place where you're safe, where your heart can renew

Where Love shouldn't be therapy for your Soul
But rather it's essence and design
Where it's Truth will set you free and make you whole
And your Heart, Mind and Soul align

Tell your Alternate Self, though it may squirm
That you no longer feel its need
Hold on to your Truth, be firm
No matter how much it may beg and plead

Allow your being to be guided by the Force
Where your heart is open and and you can clearly see
Just flow into yourself, follow your Source
What you are comes out to Be

There are no thoughts and your mind is free now
What matters is - you're you
Basic, beautiful, unique - and how!
Stop looking around for a clue

The Treasure lies buried within you
It's not riches, diamonds or gold
Release your doubt, it'll come into view
As the bounty of Wisdom and Love manifold

The time has come to embrace your Light
It's time for a Spiritual Revolution
Live through your Soul with your Love burning bright
It's the one and only, the Ultimate Solution.

Changed

He stands upright

Yet leaning

Hinting for support to the energies around him

He's taken a large stone to the heart

Catching him off guard

And he watches helplessly as the cracks radiate out

Even beyond his being

Leaving him shattered

Yet standing.

A whole world in his life has been demolished

And all he can do is watch

Witness

As it lays whimpering before him

Sighing in agony

Chipping away at him

With each breath.

He's swimming in the arrhythmia of his surroundings

Attempting to search for a solution

Looking for any sign of hope

Before the night mists over.

He wants to count on Time

To play sport

And throw him a few chunks of Its endless stream

Stretching the Now

To help him salvage what he can.

He wants to coat a balm

Over all the loss

And all those about him

Who are enduring a reality

Asymmetrical to anything they ever imagined.

He can see the pain

Beneath their brave smiles

He can sense the defeat

Hidden in their eyes

And especially the fear

Of the uncertain road ahead -

Its practically tangible in air.

But he knows

He cannot allow himself to disintegrate

Not right now

Time will provide for that later.

Right now

He must concentrate his focus

Unsplinter his Spirit within

And wake his resources

As the dusk around him begins to sob.

On his shoulders rest the tears of many

Whose Earth has been pulled out from under them

And who lie

Shivering

Among the rubble

Half wanting to assimilate into it

To escape the effort of re-establishing themselves

Half searching for support

In the only thing remaining standing

No matter how frail.

He wasn't waiting for Change

But now that it's here

Staring him in the face

He needs to do more than just stare back.

It might take a few moments

To reassemble his strength

But he will translate into that Fire

Majestic in potential

Blazing with resolve

And soldier on

Rebuilding what he can restore

And creating fresh what he cant.

He'll pick up what's fallen -

Possessions, emotions, energy..

Be the crutch to the unstable heart

Be the scaffolding to the unsettled mind

Be the pillar to the broken Spirit -

He will just Be

Allowing his Light to comfort the affected

Sharing his heart and hands

In blind support.

He may never attain the perfect solution

And things may never be the same again

But he never learned how to give up

And one way or another

He will phoenix from all the anguish

More resilient on the other side

More solid from within

Healed to breathe and beat once again

Revitalized

Changed.

Falling Into Him

She's falling into him
Like incense smoke whispering into the air
One moment you see it
Before you can tell
She slides into the being of the air
Making him richer with her presence
Once distinct from him
Now one with him.

She's falling into him
Like a single drop of ink
Felled into a bowl of water
You watch her shape swirl and bend
To invent unrealised, enchanting designs
Before she slips into colouring him in the summer of her shade
Enlivened.

She's falling into him
Like rhythm bending into melody
He picks up where she fades off
Revolving around each other
Harmonizing into a union divine
Each inconsequential on their own
But merging into one to resonate
As magic.

She's falling into him
Body, mind and soul
Becoming immersed in his essence
Dissipating into his embracing presence
Alive beyond her heart beating
Bluer than the sky is blue
Encapsulating a silence
Whose peace breathes love into her every moment
Blending light into light
Dissolving in the purity of his serenity
To live
Unfiltered
Complete
Within

As one.
