My miracle
The spherical
Beauty of blue skies
Swirling in your eyes
My pleasant surprise
A dream come true
A remarkable view
Courage drips
All over you

You make me want to
Drop my armor
Let it fall
Open the well
Undo the spell
Of insecurity
I have spun
A self imposed
Judas come undone
Unbelieving
There could be
One
A miracle
For me
In us

You are the last unicorn
You found me hiding
From myself
For better or for worse
You lifted the curse
White light
Ripping at my seams
How long have I been here?
A year or two my dear?
Perhaps longer...
It seems
I can feel myself
Getting
Stronger

I remember the days
I sat in a maze
A fog, a haze
Of my own disappointments
And all my own rage
Hate and anger
Had constructed
A cage
No one could get to
No, not even you
But you waited
You stayed
You listened
You prayed

No one knows exactly
How we feel
It's hard to believe
What someone says
Especially
The vulnerable and real
Oh how I could steal
Steal away into the night
Back into a corner
Of my own fright
A beautiful
Panic
A tragic
Manic
Episode
"Of nobody loves me!"
"Nobody's home!"
The lights are on
But where have I gone?

No pill could fulfill
What you give to me
The infinite promise
To believe in every
Attempt that I make
To get back up again

Beating ourselves up
Is a waste of time
If only to learn
How we can fly
And say goodbye
To behaviors
That will break
The spirit you have made
The soul that you created
My all, my everything
The thing I wake up for
To sing
You bring me joy
When all I have is pain
You taught me how
To dance in the rain
You taught me how
To climb a tree
To get away from
Anything
To fall in love
With nature
Like painted lightening
You truly are my savior
Always fighting
For my love

My miracle
The spherical
Beauty of blue skies
Swirling in your eyes
My pleasant surprise
A dream come true
A remarkable view
Courage drips
All over you

Watch how you inspire
Watch me leap
Watch me rocket
A blast of fire
Across the horizon
Write your name in the sky
He's Alive
Divine Mother
Grandfather Fire
Hold me while I cry
I cannot deny

Calling all angels
Saints of all religions
Gurus, Yogis
Masters of
The spiritual truth
Allah, Yahweh
Maker you soothe

Heal in us the
Mental abuse
The hurt of other people's views
The judgements that we did not choose
Finally
We'll call a truce

I believe in my heart
There is a place
Where God
Has filled
An empty
Space
I do not need
To see your face

I cannot explain
The feeling it gives
The SPIRIT LIVES
Your spirit IS

OUR miracle
The spherical
Beauty of blue skies
Swirling in your eyes
OUR pleasant surprise
A dream come true
A remarkable view
Your courage drips
All over you

Teacher, mentor, sage and chief
You empty out the hollow grief
Burglarize our desolation
In the night you are the thief
While we sleep
The Santa Clause
Of chimney sweeps
A vacuum for our agony
In everything that we believe
I feel your peace
Wash over me
Thank you
For keeping the faith
When I could not
Conceive
Thank you for
Forgiving me

My rock
Our foundation
The touchstone
Of relation

What marvelous miracles
You do weave
I am the miracle
You are to me

O'er the ocean
By the sea
On the sand
Or in a tree
Wherever your
Heart beats
Wherever your
Blood red
Heart bleeds
I'll always be
Right next
To thee

You can climb
Every mountain
Any place you want to go
You are my fountain
I will stand beside you
Watch as your ocean
Waves and flows
A beautiful collision
Walking on water
Your blooms unfold
Our flowers grow
We levitate
We gravitate
In two
One another
We are
Stardust
Undercover

Meet me underneath
The sea
You are a mermaid
Diving into the deep
Everything imaginary
Exists with me
I'll be your seahorse
Float around you
I'll be your owl
Soaring down to
Offer you
A ride
You decide
Glide
On my wings
Rest your head
Face the magic
Of Queens
And Kings

Breathing under water
Is an art we have
Perfected
Unaffected
By the world that
Surrounds us
Even if
War has found us
We are blessed
I have you
You have me
A sturdy nest
Protectors
We are the directors
Of world peace

Nothing can stop
The brilliance
We possess
Watch as every
Constellation
Kneels before us
To confess
The joy
That they
Witness

Flying in the sky
I'll be your falcon
You can always
Count on me
Relentlessly

Resilience is my middle name
I know you feel the same
Two twin lights
We fight the storm
Of life
Our love is warm
Sending off our fires
Into the night
A blast of stars
Fireworks
Unite in the
Nursery of
Our heaven

One voice
One song
We shine like the moon
Above the jungle
Every lagoon
Coasting over every island
Eternal friends
Every bayou
Until earth bends
I'll go with you

We are
In the back pocket
Of every lover
Reaching in
They will find
The kisses
That we keep there
Our galaxies
Of affection
We are everywhere
In everything
Let the universe stare
Wherever we are
We are there
A magnetism of
Contagious smiles
A sound that
Resonates for miles

A definite glow
A laser light show
Atomic illumination
In the blink of an eye
The Big Bomb
Of Creation

We are the resolution
God's gift to evolution

Sharing our love
With every child
Every elder
Every homeless
Shelter

Let the universe stare
Wherever we are
We are there
A magnetism of
Contagious smiles
A sound that
Resonates for miles
And miles

Let me sing you to sleep
Let me have you to keep
Let me let you go
Help me let you know
You are free to fly
You are free to go
Spread your wings
At anytime
My butterfly

Let me caress your wings
Let me share with you the finer things
No one else ever has
Let me take the chances
Everyone was afraid to have
With you
Sing you
A song
Of love
A lullaby
A coo

Your fluttering flight
Through life to fight
To spread your wings
To greater heights
I am humming
To the beat of your heart
To let you know
You are safe here
You are home

Your colors never
Have to compromise
Your excitement
Will be not dampened
Your light
Will be not hampered
Your cup
Will be not empty
You are free to fly
Any time that you are
Tempted

Life is too short
To prevent you
From living it
That's why I'm
Giving it
All to you
A song
A chant
A lullaby
Of truth

As your wings develop
May my love envelop
You
Careful not to suffocate
Gentle is your transformation
Changing, growing
Becoming your
Incredible
Hue

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord your soul to keep
My butterfly, my lullaby
My sweetest sweet
If you should ever need to leave
Ever feel the need to breathe
Take my hand
Feel the release
Of being free
Free to return
Free to adventure
Just as I mentioned
Into the wild
The great abyss
I will give thee
A butterfly kiss
Twice on your cheeks
Once on your lips

Follow your heart
Around the world
My love will never wane away
My feelings will not shift for you
Tomorrow, Ten thousand years, or today
This unconditional vein of love
Will always be here
Waiting for you
To sing this
Lullaby
Of truth

Let me caress your wings
Let me share with you the finer things
No one else ever has
Let me take the chances
Everyone was afraid to have
With you
Sing you
A song
Of love
A lullaby
A coo

Remember the sound
Remember the song
Remember the humming
The drumming, the buzzing
The one that I've been singing
All along, your lullaby, your song
Flap your wings, feel the beat
Let the rhythm be the wind
Beneath

A song of liberation
Embracing the
Freedom within you
A lullaby for my butterfly
Fly away if you must go
As you spread your wings
Remembering
You always have
A home
Here
With
Me

So many times I doubt myself
I ask myself what life's about
I feel something bigger
Than I could ever be
Something watching
Over me
Is it
You?

Are you my Spirit Guide?
The air that comforts me at night?
Down dark alley ways?
In hallways without light?
Are you my Spirit Guide?
The fire in my soul
Cannot deny
The way
You make
Me feel

Whenever I'm alone
I know that I can turn around
And you will be there
You never make a sound
But you are with me
I have found
Peace
A piece of me
Is peace with you

Are you my wings?
The hope that brings
Me life when everything
Is dying all around me
Is it you?

I know I could not
Take another step
Without you there
I feel you everywhere
I turn my head, I lift my hands
I touch the sky
I am yours
And you are mine
My Spirit Guide
I Love You
With you
I am
Alive

Thank you for holding my hand
Helping me to the door
Of my heart
Understanding the pain
Breaking it apart
Molding it back again
Into
Something
More beautiful
Than it intended to
Be

The wind on my neck
The hairs that rise
Just like the sun
Are you the one?
Sent here to comfort me?
How could I be so lucky?
I have you
And you have me...

Does everyone else feel this way?
I want to tell the world
I want to shout it out,
I want to say
LISTEN! Someone's watching
Over you
I know it's true
I'm just not sure
What I should call you...

The bus that should have hit me
The step that would have killed me
The thing that keeps me here
When all I want to do is disappear

I know I could not
Take another step
Without you there
I feel you everywhere
I turn my head, I lift my hands
I touch the sky
I am yours
And you are mine
My Spirit Guide
I Love You
With you
I am
Alive

I pray Heavenly Father
Divine Mother
Holy Spirit
Saints
And
Sages
Of ALL religions
Bless us, help us understand
What it means to be on this land
This earth that we call home
This place where we all roam
I want us all to make it
To heavens gate
I pray for love
I pray for light
I pray for
Spirit Guides
To come to everyone
To be awake
To lead us to do the work
That will become
The legacy of your love
Dear God above

Send us your Spirit Guides
Let our arms be open wide
Let our hearts no longer hide
Give those the strength
That want to die the lightwork
Patience, unconditional love
And the courage to rise above
The darkness that wants to ****
The life out of us every day
Dear God I pray
Show us the way
In you we are humbled
Everyday

My will is yours
Your will is mine
Our love Divine
Send to us your Spirit Guides
Make it known
The power of
Your flame
Is shown

All positive energy
Is welcome to stay
All negative energy
Is commanded to leave
It is not the people
It is the disease
And we are your warriors
Of light
Ready to take flight
Hear my battle cry
Projecting LOVE
Call my name
I will be here
Just as you
Protect us
Dear One
Above

I know I could not
Take another step
Without you there
I feel you everywhere
I turn my head, I lift my hands
I touch the sky
I am yours
And you are mine
I Love You
And
With you
I am
Alive

Flood me with your love
Don't hold back
Don't refrain
Don't be afraid
To seal your fate
We feel the same
This is our truth
I feel the Spirit
When I'm with you
You are my light
You are the truth

Like an avalanche
Your emotions rain
Feel free to be
The way you are
When you're with me
No restrictions
Nothing's too much
No expectations
Just acceptance
And pure
Love

You've been alone
And pushed away
No one to call on
Everyday
Trapped inside
A barricade of snow
Nowhere to go
Nothing to flood
No where to flow

Calling all angels
Spread your wings
Open your arms of light
And bring us
Hope
Bring us home
A way to cope
With emptiness
Giving back to those
Who chose to love us
Just as we are
Just as the stars
We were created
To be

Send your dove
Of cosmic love
To touch us in the night
To teach us in our dreams
To hold us when we cry
To comfort out the screams

The world is in pain
But we are abundant
Ready to share
Ready to bare
Paving a way
To be eternally
Saved

Flood me with your love
Don't hold back
Don't refrain
Don't be afraid
To seal your fate
We feel the same
This is our truth
I feel the Spirit
When I'm with you
You are my light
You are the truth

Walking through the forest breeze
Hugging Mother Nature's trees
I open up my heart to please
We bow before you on our knees

Stand in the middle
Of the wildwood where
The flowers grow
I'll meet you there
To fill you with a flood
Of love
A landslide of
Fervor and light
Every day
And
Every night

Find a special place to sit
A field, a seat of grass, a place
Where we can quietly visit
Think of me
Speak with your heart
Speak with your mind
I will meet you
You will see
We are connected
Infinitely

Your soul path leads you through
What you will learn on earth
So you can grow the wings
You'll need to fly
When it is time
To say goodbye

And when you say
Godspeed know this
You actually say hello
You see
You're never truly leaving me
I am always with you
You are always with me
Just as your loved ones
Have always been
Anyone you lost
And loved
Has always
Watched you
From above
From behind
Right beside
In every tree
And every stair
You've ever climbed

I am always with you
Listen, listen, listen

Flood me with your love
Don't hold back
Don't refrain
Don't be afraid
To seal your fate
We feel the same
This is our truth
I feel the Spirit
When I'm with you
You are my light
You are the truth
I know that you
Can feel it too

I am always with you
Listen, listen, listen
Shhhhh....
I'm here with
You

Gorgeously in the sea
You swim and glide and breathe sweet love
Your smile from above
The ocean floor glows of a gift
We listen to it sift
You help us move through bliss leading
Eternally dreaming awake
Teach us how we can shake our fears

Our hurt learns how to rise
To slide with joy and glide away
It never wants to stay
At home more than a day, we find
A colorful dreamtime
Surfing we are aligned and sleek
We can finally speak
And everything we seek we have

Our inner voice will call
You help us through it all as we
Listen in carefully outside
All around us the tide is loud
A lion roaring crowd
We are seeking the sound that sings
Balance and harmonies
This comfort in us brings great peace

Reveal to us ourselves
Spirit Seal tell us what else we need
To comfort and to feed
Our spirits if indeed we live
Another day to give our prayers
Ask God to meet us where our deep
Wisdom and souls will keep
Us safe when we're asleep Amen

You are my dragon
You are my imaginary friend
You are my love-light
You are my heart beats end
You are the window to my soul
When my smile wants to
Descend
You lift me up
You shower light
From above me and below
Your dragon fire of love
Ignites my soul
Again

You are my unicorn
You are my buried treasure
You are the thing
Everyone says that
Does not exist
I feel you in my veins
I feel your tender bliss
I know your magic kiss
Never solicitous
Even when they say
You don't exist

We are stars
Communicating with each other
You are my sister
You are my brother
My Sacred father
Our Divine Mother
When I am asked
How do you know
Prove your higher power lives
I wonder how, I wonder if
People truly know what
Love is

I have never had to prove
The love that I feel
The way that your light
Can heal
Your touch
The chills that rush
Around my everything
My temple heart
My body's Internet

As I connect with
Lightworkers here on earth
We reach out to understand our birth
Together we experience
Your unforgettable worth
For without this light
I could not fight
My warrior heart would
Fall apart
And
Die

You are my strength from within

That is why
You are my dragon
You are my imaginary friend
You are my love-light
You are my heart beats end
You are the window to my soul
When my smile wants to
Descend
You lift me up
You shower light
From above me and below
Your dragon fire of love
Ignites my soul
Again
And
Again

I don't have to win
I could never lose
I want to share your love
But we all have to choose
To see it on our own
To feel it in our blood
To make in you
A home

My Phoenix rising

When I think of what you created
The connections that we have
The starlight between us
The way that you guide us
The way that you lead us
I know we are only as far
Away from one another
As the next star

I sat on the beach
Trying to reach you
Earnest in my heart
Was my prayer
To feel you there
To stare
I looked to the heavens
My eyes married the sky
I watched as electricity
Vibrated and waved
Between each starlight
Stars, your creation
Just as we are
Your worldwide
Love destination
The stars shine together well
Let this be our magic
Let this be our spell

When we look into the night
Let this be a mirror for living
A way for us to understand
That we too can be giving
To each other
Shining light all around
One another
My neighbor
My sister
My landlord
My brother
Animals
Our Fathers
And our
Mothers

You make me proud
To be a star for you
With you
I am also a tree
I'm a bird
We are free
I am the song in your hands
Your favorite love letter
Your favorite note
Every word that you spoke
I am written on
The universe in your
Temple heart
And you are
By far
My earth
My wind
My water
You are
My fire
You are

My eternal breath of life

My dragon
You are my imaginary friend
You are my love-light
You are my heart beats end
You are the window to my soul
When my smile wants to
Descend
You lift me up
You shower light
From above me and below
Your dragon fire of love
Ignites my soul
Again
And
Again
And
Again

I believe
