i need to stop
setting myself on fire
to keep you warm.
i keep burning for you.
I live as a vessel of pure light.
Shadow does not rest with this form.
I see the world as an expression of my own self.
Love abides as all being.
We come only to discover this One Truth.
All the longing and movement of life
serves only to highlight the Divine within.
We are One.

laugh at yourself
laugh at life
enjoy yourself
enjoy life
time is short
in the age of earth
have fun now
its a long death
timeless places
held tight
arrested lifetime
twilight sun
golden water
exhale
breathe the day
If life becomes the inadvertent path of sorrows, it becomes a complete tragedy.
The voice is yours.
The name is mine.
You added the tune
to my exhaled breath.
The voice is yours.
The effort is mine.

HOPE
Incriminating of oneself to criminal prosecution,
Into a place where its dark and cold as highways of California
Hands on my back bound to bottom in chains,
With no where to hide

A long walk to freedom,
As I drag my feet to the right,
And look up in the sky with my eyes closed
Finally, I could see a tiny cloud to liberation of Sunday morning blues.
#Grieve #FindingHealing
Stroll in the night
Pretty shape of light
Caress you in my imagination
Island in a sea called sky
Let me sleep under beams so tender
I am in love, I surrender.
