This will be the winter of my contentment
I will shed regret and resentment
I will finally get it
I will not forget it
I will shred this narrow point of view
This prism of individuality
It’s a prison in reality
The world is a superorganism in totality
I see intersectionality and finally find sanity
My mind is now a GoPro
I can view my life in slow-mo
This is not the Truman Show
This is real, I can feel it
As this film reel flies by
I steal a glimpse with these two eyes
Before I meet my demise I will run with these two thighs
I will squat 5 plate, I will lose some weight
I will choose my fate
Lighter than a feather because I have come untethered
I float high among the weather, never weathered
Renewed by cleansing rains
You may call them hurricanes
But that is a matter of perspective
Positivity is infective
So I will spread a vibrant virus
From the Pope to Miley Cyrus
I say nope to the winter blues
This is the winter that I choose
To sway to and fro with the flow
To gratefully frolic in the snow

With a faith in life

I am not here to distract your demons,
Nor can I give you the sweet nectar of Life.
I cannot give you the river of Bliss
that flows through your very own Heart
I am just here, waiting for the Holy One
to turn on the music so we can dance!


Don’t take second hand love
When everything you have ever wanted
Is right there waiting for you to remember

I can’t give you your own soul. I can’t give you anything.

Why tug on rags
Why not come into the fullness of Gods grace?
What can I give you that would be more than a crumb
compared to the treasures of your own heart?

But, I can see you as my Self
And Love you as God
And maybe we can innocently dip a toe in the waters
which long to pull us in DEEP.

For the good of humanity we should just sit here,
laughing all the time.
And we can go to the water,
But let us not cross the stream

he was blue.
     the hue of sadness.
          the hue of coldness.

                          she was yellow.
          the shade of happiness.
     the shade of joy.

he was dull.
    
     she was bright.

and they were the perfect marriage of day and night.

I want to dive deep
and swim freely
in the ocean of emotion
No holding back
No barriers
Let me be open
Let it all flow
through me
to me
from me
Let me be one with all
I'm willing to, so
take me and
let me go
Dance with me
eternally
into infinity

Black and white       
Brewed,
and grey is born.                        
Colour me grey.         In,out.                      
And i'd paint the world anew.
