I embrace the coming moment,
Open it to the surprise of the present.
The gift of life wrapped in the eternity of now.

epoch

i see her
across the mirror
her golden eyes
staring back at me
she knows what must be done
it’s the end of an era
baggage from the past drags
in between her legs
heartbreak, manipulation,
betrayal, broken promises,
broken dreams, lost innocence,
anxiety, breakdowns, grief, sadness

i see her
across the mirror
my golden eyes
staring back at me
i know what must be done
it’s the end of an era
my body is itching for release
shedding itself free
i won’t claim the lost baggage

Havoc

𝐼 𝑢𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑏𝑒
𝑎𝑓𝑟𝑎𝑖𝑑 𝑜𝑓 𝑑𝑒𝑎𝑡ℎ

𝗡𝗼𝘄

I like killing myself
framing insomnia
whereas it’s me who detests sleep
in my dreams
I grasp a glimpse of bliss
fantasizing what I can’t have
confined in a theoretical domain

I like the susceptibility of
being shredded by
other people's opinions
yearning for honesty
even when I know
it's not what I want to hear
𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒
tell me you liked my natural hair
before I dyed it
𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒
tell me I’m too naive
tell me I’m too young
tell me I’m too volatile
𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒
tell me I shouldn’t speak my mind
tell me I don’t fit your beauty standards

I want the truth;
not a sugar coating
Truth will set us free
Truth will enable our true selves
Truth will take us a long way

What does it take?

What does it take?
To sit in silence

What does it take?
To inhale a breath of love

What does it take?
To hug the universe

What does it take?
To breath out peace to all

What does it take?
To accept this moment,
As it is.

A deep breath
A smile
A single drop of gratitude

All is well and always will be
In Grace Eternal

I hug this moment

i hold this moment
close to my heart
Hug her
Feel her
Deep within
An unwavering light
A lotus blossom
Of love

Gentle silence
Now
Is all there is
And will ever be

In the middle of curfew and fears - suddenly i felt, this moment - by itself is still and beautiful

Back to the Past Present

the current redeemer is fabricated with excess intentions
the never-ending fabrications erupting, are frightening
obviously, we hope for a future
a future back to the past present

Brian Hill - 2020 # 76

Can we ever go back?

Let Go

Letting go
Of crowds
To watch the sun set
In the ocean

Letting go
Of what should be
To open up
To what could be

Letting go
Of thoughts
To live in freedom
Of emptiness

Letting go
Of words
To hear the silence
Of the heart

Letting go
Of life
To dissolve
In this very moment

The Climb

I want to look down from
Where I am on the mountain
Called life
And see
Everything I've conquered

And still have the courage
To look up
And keep climbing
Despite the fear of falling

Still a work in progress...
