Caught in a trap
Between thoughts and feelings
Finding both false

How to find the truth
The space beyond self-justification
To be at peace

Can I surrender my power
Can I become vulnerable and open
Fears arise and the dance begins again

Set in ink
My thoughts seem silly
Childish arguments
For bad behavior

The truth lies deeper
It evades capture
And will not be trapped
In the form of words

Taking in this moment
Looking out into the mists of uncertainty
I wonder how to embrace
This new reality

What will be my role
In these shifting patterns
That have been locked for so long

It seems much is possible
What will humanity choose to manifest

Sitting still
While the moment passes
Nothing is lost
As time collapses
Into unity

I am beginning to understand
I was formed whole
Nothing was left out
Nothing to be sent along later

So then what am waiting for
To start my life
Why do I play so small
In this garden of abundance

The walls of my fears
It seems are illusions
Fabrications I cling to
Protecting me from an imaginary abyss

How to tear these walls down
And emerge from this prison
From the sad aloneness
Into joy and connection

Water
   alive with nature's power
Nourishing
Delighting
Creating boundary

With a simple act
Washing the world clean

What does this moment bring
Who ordained it
   and what can I learn

All good questions
   that miss the point entirely
For questions lead to story
And this moment has none

It is as I am

In the vastness of my being
I connect with the divine
Finally understanding
How the two are one

Now knowing
The unlimited potential
Of who I am

As I embrace who I am
In the knowing of Wholeness
I explode into Joy

The light flutters
Across the page of my mind
Soothing the anguish
Pain from my past

Knowing I can choose
Who will I be today
I wonder
Will I venture forth
From these walls
Built for me
And by me
Will I face my fears
And let them melt away

Wrong
What a concept
The idea
Something is not as it should be
Rather than accepting
It is as it is
