Dancing in the Moment
Ahmad Cox Feb 2013
Life is like dancing
We dance and twirl
From one moment
To the next as we

Spin through space
And time spinning
And colliding into
Each other as our

Hearts and souls
Move to the ever
Present groove of
Life as we dance

Together in the
Cosmic rhythm
Of life and love
Personified through

Our own unique
Dance and voice
As we continue
To sing our own

Melody and we
Sing our own
Beat our song
And our feet

Are moving as
One even as
Crazy as our
Individual

Songs and
Dances might
Be they all
Dance to the

Same hidden
Beat hidden
Through the
Universe and

Calling the
Dancer and
The singers
As we sing

Our praise
Of love and
Light through
Our lives as

We exhibit
Gods wonder
And creativity
Through our

Beautiful dance
And song and
Holy rhythm
That flows

Through the
Entire universe
As God plays
With his children

In new and
Loving and
Creative ways
With each of us

The Night is Calling
Ahmad Cox Jan 2013
The Night is Calling
The Moon is beckoning
Me under her beautiful
And Ethereal glow calling
All night owls who happen
To stray too far away from
Home on a beautiful night
Like this are ever trapped in
Your light and mesmerized
Like a moth to a flame
Reaching for you and
Feeling your heavenly
Influence and tug on the
Earth like two drunken
Dancers you dance in
Space together circling
Around each other in
A loving embrace that
Will continue to play
Out night after night
Day after day as the
Earth and the Moon
And even the Sun
Begin to play as they
Circle around each other
Day in and day out
Calling to the wayward
Soul who happens upon
Their dance and feels
The ever present tug
And influence of our
Beautiful Moon when
The night is calling and
'The Sun is still deep
Asleep in its bed

I see life
In your eyes

Talking to me
Comforting me
Guiding me
As I move

Meaning
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Everything in life has meaning
Even your life matters
Everything in the universe
Has a great design and purpose
From the smaller atom
To the biggest star
Everything matters
We have to see the bigger picture
To truly find meaning
Not only for our own lives
But for everything else inbetween

7th Revelation
Ahmad Cox Jul 2013
I am the sky and the moon and everything in between. I am the great creator. I am the spirit inside your soul. I am in you. We are altogether one in me. More parts making up one whole. Even part of I and we have worth. Nothing works without the one but nothing works without us and we and everything in between. Even we are separate we are one. Many separate yet unique parts making up the whole.

The world is a stage
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
The world is a stage
We are all players
We are all puppets
Playing our own strings
When we try and control
And pull our strings
Too tight
We can become rigid
Out of sync
Not moving smoothly
Fighting ourselves
Getting entangled
In our own strings
When we let go
When we give up control
Is when we will find
Our actions
Are more lifelike
More real
We will feel more animated
Lighter
Smoother
Our actions
Gliding
As we glide
Through life
If we learn to give up control
Don't hold so tight
You are only
Holding yourself back
Getting stuck
In your own strings

Force
Ahmad Cox Mar 2013
There is a force
An undeniable
Power and energy
That flows through
Everything on the
Earth and in the
Universe as we
Watch our lives
Roll out in front
Of of us this force
Comes from the
Darkness and
Lights the way

Are at our most
Lowest point
Love flows
Through the
Earth and In
Everything
We all have
This healing
And loving
Force inside
Of us and
When we
Give in to
This love
And that
Wonderful
Healing
Force and
Light that
Permeates
Your very
Soul and
Permeates

To understand
The greatest
Force and power
Is love divine
When you give
Yourself over
To this force
Of the universe
You will come
To understand
Everything and
Life will begin
To take on a
Whole new
Beauty and
Hope and
Meaning as
You begin to
See this life
Giving force
And love in
Everything
And everyone

Running Away
Ahmad Cox Oct 2012
Running Away
Can seem easy
Running Away
Can seem like
The best option
It can feel like
Running away
Is the only sane option
The only thing
That seems right
There are times
When we must face
Fight, and battle
Your inner demons
Fight not flight
Fighting against
Injustices
That happen
Everyday
Fight for peace
Fight for love
Fight for life
We have to be
Willing to fight
The only thing
We should never fight
Is ourselves
It can be easy
To fight ourselves
While running
From the world
It should be the opposite
We should be
Embracing ourselves
And fighting
For the people
And a world
That needs
Fighting for

Earth
Ahmad Cox Dec 2011
The earth is a place of magnificent beauty
It's a place of wonder incomprehensible
Our beautiful mother sustains us all
Our beautiful pearl in the milky way
Perfectly positioned
So that we may live
And so that we may thrive
And learn
There are a lot of things
That people do
To harm the Earth
And to harm our mother
But she loves us all the same
Even with the wars
Even with the diseases
The poverty
The ignorance
And even with the pain
That comes from living
And growing
The earth still supports us just the same
In her loving embrace
So we should start loving the Earth
A little more
And caring a little less about war
And violence
And ignorance
And start paying
A little more attention
To the Earth
Our mother
Because she wants to heal
And sing
We just have to start listening

Creativity
Ahmad Cox Feb 2012
That spark that inside of us.
That creativity that lies in all of us
No matter what, we all have this spark inside of us
That spark that connect us together
That creative spark that leads the way
We are meant to live in joy
Expressing ourselves fully
Sharing our gifts and our creative sparks with each other
Allowing ourselves to share ourselves with others
And allowing ourselves to let go of fear
Tap into that part of yourself
That creativity
That part of you who knows who you are
Where you have been
And what you are meant to do
And being able to share that openly with others
Instead we shield ourselves
We judge ourselves and others
And we tell people that they shouldn't express themselves
And to fully express their dreams
And their artistic potential'
To punch into the grind of material living
To grow up
Stop being a kid
To **** that spark inside of you
But we all have it
Once you have found it
Never let anyone **** that creative spark in you
Allow yourself to live in joy
And to share that gift and yourself with others
Allowing yourself to be open with others
And having that heart of a child
That takes joy in each moment

We are free
Ahmad Cox Jan 2013
Our hearts are free
We are free when we
Set out to be in our
Souls and hearts

We tend to chain and
Restrict ourselves and
Not seeing our true
Worth and beauty

We tend to lie to
Ourselves and tell
Ourselves of things
That aren't true

We are whole and
Beautiful in our
Own ways and
Our hearts know

The truth to be
Free with our
Hearts and minds
And souls is just there

Waiting below the
Surface and letting
Us know we can
Let go of all of the

Things that burden
Us and keep us from
Seeing ourselves as
We truly are

Revelation #12
Ahmad Cox Jul 2013
Our Mother is a site to behold. A beautiful blue pearl shining in the vastness of space. She is filled with life as she gives forth from her bounty and riches to all of the creatures and the creations on the Earth, The tree of life is written in everyone of her creations. We all came from the same motherly source. We all carry that life giving flame inside of us. It is written in our DNA and in our hearts. We can not deny our Mother. She is too important to waste. We must protect her at all costs to ensure our own survival. We have to listen to the cries of our Mother and heed her call. She is always there with open arms to share her motherly love to all who show her a little love back but she still loves all of her creations just the same.

Moving in unison

Resounding in me

The flow of life
Moving through my veins
Flowing in my heart

Above everything
Rising above the pain

Rising above all the things
That keep you from letting go
Finding yourself
Connecting to that healing
Light filled part of yourself
Letting go of everything
That grounds you
That holds you
That keeps you from floating
From flying
From soaring
Let go of the baggage of the world
And take on the wings of spirit
Give in to that lighter
Happier
More forfilled part of yourself
That will help you float
And rise above the trials
That will try to
Bring you back down again
Rise

Of change as you
Fly into the sky
Ever higher and
More free than

8th Revelation
Ahmad Cox Jul 2013
Complete and whole we are all complete and whole. We are all born with everything we evert need as we move forward in life. Learning to navigate life as we continue to add to ourself as we go along. Sometimes these things we add will only weigh us down as we try to make it through another day and there are somethings we lose along the way but ultimately we are all complete and perfect in God's eyes. He truly sees our potential and he loves to remind us of how beautiful, whole, and complete. We all really are in our own way.

Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Once in a while
It can get hard to smile
Every once in a while
It can get hard to breath
Every once in a while
It can be easy to think about giving up
Every once in a while
You just want  to be free
Free from the weight
Free from the pain
Free from the guilt
Freedom from the shame
Every once in a while
You have to take time for yourself
And to just let it all go
Let go of the hurt
The pain
The shame
And the guilt
And just live day by day
Trying to become a slightly better person
Than you were the day before

Stained
Ahmad Cox Dec 2011
We are all stained
We are all trying to remove the blemishes
Remove the scars
Remove the dark part of our pasts
The dark part of ourselves
We are all stained in our own ways
Things that make us wonder
If we will ever get clean again
If we can ever become whole
If we can ever become pure
Free of stains
Free of hurt
Free of pain
Free of the things
That make us question ourselves
If we are really where we are supposed to be
We all have our stains
They can cloud our eyes
Make us feel *****
Make us feel like we can never truly be clean
That we will just have to live the rest of our lives feeling unclean
Feeling stained
Feeling damaged
Feeling lost
Feeling alone
Ostracizing ourselves more and more
Feeling more and more cut off from others and from ourselves
But we all have our stains
There is no reason to hide
We all have those moments
When we feel unclean
And like we can never be whole
And like we are standing out in the rain all alone
But it's through life's trials
That we are able to learn and to grow
And slowly but surely remove some of the stains
And replace them with a more whole
And fresh
And clean you

December 2012
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
When I think about the events to unfold
When I start to think about the future
When I hear stories about our impending doom
When I hear about what could or might happen
On December in 2012
I don't feel panicked
I don't even feel worried
I almost feel a calm acceptance
Of what needs to be
Whether the doomsday prophecies come true
Whether nothing happens at all
Just another day passing by like any other
I know that there are a lot of experts
That have a lot of opinions
Some people say that there will be a massive solar flare
That will come in december
That will wipe out our communications
That will reverse our pole
And that might cause untold havoc on the human population
Some people say that Nibiri is going to pass by
And that it will cause untold catastrophe when it passes
There are even some people who feel like we might go through
A world war three
And that we might end it all by a nuclear strike
Some people feel like the earth might slip on it's axis
Some people even believe that aliens might come down
To take the people that are chosen
And leave the rest of the people behind
To endure the worst of the storm
To take them away
To populate some other planet
Some people even believe that the rapture will happen
And that it will bring upon the returning of Christ
And the impending apocalypse to come
I know that I am actually looking forward to what might happen
It might just be the adventurous side of me
But I am almost waiting and anticipating
To see exactly what might happen
I think I might be a little disappointed
If nothing happened at all
The Earth needs a break
She needs time to rest
This is part of our history
Everything happens in great cycles
Great advanced civilizations rise
Only to be laid down again
And for something new to be laid in it's wake
Making room for new advancements
We need to be conscious of this
So that we can move forward
So that we don't get left behind when the new wave hits us
Because I have a feeling that when it does
It will hit us like a brick
The change will be sudden
And some people might get swallowed up
In that very first moment
But it's just paving the way for the new
More wonderful things to come

The Floor
Ahmad Cox Aug 2012
Sometimes you have to hit the floor
Hit the bottom
Find humility
Sometimes you have to know
What it truly is to fall
Before you can fly
When life hits you hard
It can really feel like hitting a wall
Smacking into life
Full force
But its at these times
When we can truly find ourselves
In the pain
We can still find ourselves
In the dark
Finding our way
Even when the world
Is falling around us

Invasion
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
Little green men
Have invaded our television
Visions of aliens from mars
Instead of sugar plums
Dance through our head
Threatening our sanity
Causing hysteria
There are little green men
On the television
Sometimes I think all of those crazy politicians
And officials might be little green men themselves
Disguised as humans
To hide their existence
But I shouldn't think too loudly
The little green men might come after me.
I felt like writing a more whimsical piece on alien hysteria

Conversations

Conversations
In your mind
Playing out
Clouding
Your thoughts
A mile a minute
Conversations
Playing
Through your mind
Keeping you from peace
Not allowing you
To center
To find that quiet place
That refuge inside your mind
When the world comes stumbling in
Threatening your peace
Keeping you from getting sleep
Sometimes these conversations
Can seem so real
It can feel
Like these conversations
That incessant chatter
Just won't stop
Sometimes
Those thoughts in your head
Can become so constant
That you start to believe
That the thoughts
And the feelings
And the voices in your head
Are actually real
And you can begin to believe
The negative things
That keep playing through
Your mind
Sometimes
You have to separate yourself
From your thoughts
Learning to switch your thoughts
Switch your perspectives
So that you can begin to separate
The thoughts inside your head
And begin listening to
That calm inner voice
That encourages
That guides
That offers
Peace
Quiet
Calm
That lets you know
That you are beautiful
That you are
Exactly where
You should be

3rd Revelation
Ahmad Cox Jul 2013
There is a new love on the horizon. God's love and angels and his healing truth and spirit is closer than ever. Even though there might be some people that in the dark the people of the light know and feel the time is at hand. The veil has been lifted and God's great love and truth has been poured out for all those who see and feel him as a testament of God's great love and mercy as he washes us with his power and grace.

4th Revelation
Ahmad Cox Jul 2013
I feel God's love and energy and presence in my heart. I know that whenever I call his name in prayer or when I am reading his word I can feel his purifying spirit in me as I share it with others. God's love purifies everything and everybody that calls his name. Darkness can not live where there is light. Even when I fall God still bestows his healing grace upon me when I return to call out his name in prayer and for others as well> I do not believe that God withdraws from his children so easily. Even when we fall or stumble we are only ever a step away from God's grace and healing guidance. If we turn our faces and our hearts toward the light God will always find a way to light the way.

You start to realize just how beautiful

Everybody has love for sale
Everyone is looking to buy some love
But sometimes
What glitters
Is not always gold
You have to be careful
When you sell your love

You even have to be careful
About who you buy your love from as well

Fork in the road

I am at that fork in the road
Where I can go one way
Or I can go the other
The way isn't clear
There are multiple options that I can go
Neither one seems certain
I know that I can't spend too much time
Sitting and wondering which way I should go
Or else I will sit here in indecision
Never making a move
Staying in place
But if I am too hasty
I might just make a mistake
Having to backtrack
Turning around
When I could have picked the right choice
In the first place
Sometimes the fork in the road
Is life's way of moving us
Shaking us from our current trajectory
To move on to the next chapter

Lights Out
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Lights out
Good night
The sun has set
The night time hour
Has descended upon us
The night has come
The lights are gone
Lost in the night
When the lights first go out
It can be hard to see
Sometimes we can stumble along
Not knowing where we need to go
Tripping over and stumbling
Over any obstacle in our way
After a while
Our night vision kicks in
And we start to see farther
The night starts getting brighter
The obstacles in our way
Become more clear
We get to the point
Where we can navigate
Through the night
With relative ease
Life is a lot like
Switching the lights off
When things are the brightest
Some time we can stumble along
Not really knowing
Which way we should be going
Tripping over every obstacle
That trips us up
Or that falls in our way
But its once we have been in the dark
For a little bit of time
When we start to become
More adept at navigating the night
Learning to trust our night vision
Trusting our instincts instead of our eyes
Learning to trust the inner primal knowing
That guides you through those dark ravines
That guides you through those dark points
Learn to trust that night vision
That inner knowing
The inner faith
That will lead you through
The darkest night

We think we have control
Ahmad Cox Sep 2012
Even when we think
We have control
Life has a way
Of showing us
Just how much our plans
Our are sense of control
Really matters
In this world
We must learn
To give up control
Understand
That things happen
As they happen
Things don't always
Go as planned
We can't keep trying
To control everything
Just let life flow
Understand the flow of life
Life will become
A lot easier

Christmas
Ahmad Cox Dec 2011
Christmas is this thing
It's an enigma
There are many converging factors
That make this time of year equally hopeful
But equally stressful and plastic
Giving unrealistic ideas
That  can drive some people to poverty and insanity
Within a mere week
Sometimes within a day
I think the thing that makes this particular holiday special
Is the offering of hope and good will that it is supposed to stand for
Yet it's also the time of year when we are told that we must spend our money
Buy that big screen t.v.
Buy your hope
Go broke trying to buy our penance
Spending money to wash away the guilt
To feel like we have actually given something
To somehow feel like we can make up
For all the other times we didn't give
Or make up for the distance we have with our families
And somehow make up for all the times we weren't there.
And we somehow feel entitled to receive these gifts
And some people will actually feel mad
Even angry if no one gives them a gift on Christmas
Whether they have been naughty or nice
And then there are the people who are left out in the cold
Who have no family
No loved ones
No gifts
No hope
Who feel even more estranged
And lost
And forgotten during this time
But even with that said
There is still a kernel of goodness and wisdom
To spreading good will to all men
And trying to spread hope and faith
For your fellow man
And trying to give just because we can
Instead of trying to receive something in return
I think that we need to imbue these qualities all year
Instead of trying to simply focus on them
When the holiday times comes
Giving to people just because you can
And sharing that empathy and good will
And showing people that you care
Just because you can
I think that if we were all to take these lessons to heart
We would all be a little better off

Gather Happiness
Ahmad Cox Jul 2012
Gather happiness wherever you can
Gather happiness in your heart
That way when the storm of life hits you
You will have a store of happiness
To protect you through the storm
Gather the joy
Gather it in your heart
And make sure to gather happiness
For all those
Who could use a little more happiness
Themselves

The Edge
Ahmad Cox Apr 2012
The edge of eternity
Lies between the future
The present
And the past
Floating elusively
Just out of our grasp
The more you try and hold on
The more it will elude you
Until you have to resign yourself
That to truly comprehend
The enormity that is eternity
You have to let go
And tap into that old intuitive part of yourself
That just knows and perceives
We all have all the knowledge
All of the information we ever need
We just need to know where to look
We just have to look inside of ourselves
To find where the edge of eternity lies
Its hidden in our minds
Its hidden in our hearts
It's just waiting to be unleashed
