I continue to suffer, God Separate from Your Infinite Awareness Fetal and curled up inside myself I continue the battle outside myself Having not the honesty to face What’s felt inside myself Love, you have so long eluded me Love tell me where you hide from me. Intermittently you return to me You are always felt like another While I struggle to find you inside of me Why is it only with another that I find me? Peace and tranquility apart from me So, God, if I ask these questions And if I am you So, must you too. Is that why you created me And the others I see Could it be, *** That I created you and That you were lonely too? Could we be The ultimate entertainment for you Or for me Like characters on a moving screen You gave us names You gave us roles You gave us means But you forgot to tell us It was only a game You designed To keep us entertained That would be too cruel So, I may have to overrule That scenario, however You really are the ultimate Lothario Looking for love In all the wrong places Looking for love In the crawl spaces of your mind While you were dishing it out You left some of us out A Brahmin once said Cease to cling to yourself Who should you cling to when no one is there I know I’ve misconstrued the point It’s true and If that is true and I am you It is true for you too So, you should cease to cling to me Pretend if you can that you are me And no one was there What would you do? Probably cling to you, too. And I know there are more important things to say But I’m just writing what comes up for me For God’s sake Maybe it’s not pretty Maybe it’s nitpicky Who’s to say And who are you anyway? No disrespect intended Covering my bases Just in case She turns out to be a he With an ax to grind Oh, nevermind!
