caught in your headlights I want your success
the victory fully realised
to fall deep into your love into the grave
for you to lead me back out and we dance the dance of love

I am nested, perched, content
my view across the valley to the shore
where the geese and seagulls roost
their chatter long into the night.
Nothing here wishes me ill
I belong, I am part of these things
all the senses touch is family
we are one, indivisible, love.

All your old kisses have been blown on the wind
lipskin flaked and renewed ready to kiss again
so kiss the wind and you will kiss a World unawares
even, especially send warm kisses to your worst enemies.
a practical way to change the World

we are dying all the time
the wonder is
we find life in death

"count your blessings"
I tried once
like I tried to count the
specks on the  
ceiling;
I got lost between
a million.....
and  infinity

Go ahead, saunter up and down the aisles
Run your finger down the shelves where I carefully placed all the fears I hold
But nowhere will you find that I fear walking this world in solitude
For I am a King inside the mansion of all my 206 bones

I am a shelter for myself
I seek only myself
I harbor love so passionate for myself, that I may burst like the death of a Star
I sometimes gift wrap the World and place it on a silver platter, just for me

But sometimes,
when the Universe trembles and the angels cry
I put my hands over my ears
because the quiet gets a little too loud
And when I sit on my throne and glance over my shoulder

Your absence,
I feel it a little too much

one look of love brought me here
one look of love keeps me sane
one look of love is all it takes
one look of love in the desert

death at the end of my fingertips
I wield a world of sorrow

but always waiting gently
is a place called love

and passing through my first adventure
I find a place called home

and death is a distant memory
where sorrow died too.

Your time will come
When least expected.
When you've all but thrown in the towel
finish line in sight,
the agony of defeat
at your door

This is why you must persevere;
Because all those times
When you were doing things right
And nothing worked out.
When you put in the hard work,
But no one seemed to care..
That time when you learned what it meant
to put your best face forward,
Or your pure heart,
And have it crushed in unforgiving ground
Under sullied shoes - by careless men
Or just cruel and callous  life herself -
The time when you were dragged through the dirt
for endless miles
And came up broken, hardened and brittle
You were weary, blood stained,
With a bridge-less abyss ahead
And cold ashes of a dim hope left.

You still kept your light.

-
Those times
Were but a sentence
Served in the name of resilience
A training ground for
purity of heart
And true resolve.
A battlefield
where Your warrior spirit
Was put to the test.
In a stadium
Where a silent crowd
cheered you on.

-

Now that you've allowed all to take its course
Yes, when you finally lost everything!
You will find all you had efforted for
will come to you with ease

Your touch will
Manifest abundance
Your thoughts manifest understanding
Your breath manifest Compassion
Your vision manifest light.

The time has come
When it is asked of you to accept
That all you touch
will turn to gold

It is the golden rule
That is yours alone...
The ray that honours you.

Now is the time
To learn to
Rejoice
And receive your glorious victory,
Hard earned and
gallantly sought,
with
Graceful Ease.
It is written. Your time  will come. You're just experiencing what it felt like to get there.

Out of midnight sky
unboundedness
one
dusky bluebird flew
straight to me.

Spreading his perfect wings
across my heart
I felt his feathers, felt his heart,
beating with my own.

"I will not leave you now."

"You have finally understood."

"And you have won my trust."

*"For always."

immersed in the fleshing of the Universe
dressed in skin and bone
your soul everywhere all at once
and belonging nowhere here ultimately no home
just passing through my dear, just passing through...
