Ties between us
all in knots,
full of bramble,
full of thorn.
Any bond once leading to you
is forgotten,
lost and torn.


A heartbeat born,
once in sync,
with the rhythm
of the Earth
has lost it's link,
lost it's form,
lost it's living, breathing beat.


A deep breath in,
a natural feat.
should come easy
so it's said,
but breathing water
not so sweet,
as air that fills that
and clears my head.


Like moving through
this dream of life,
new and different,
old and set,
I sit and think
like those before me...
an endless dream?
a pointless bet?


Breaking through
these clouds above me,
open palms,
full of light,
we yearn,
we grow,
reaching upwards,
to those gifts
which will unite.


one and the same,
an endless game,
breakdown,
build up,
shed the shame.
live for love,
live for peace,
give for giving,
take with grace.
