Memories of sorrow... Tuesday, December 15, 2009

From whence cometh the sadness when the heart begins to break,

What medicine have you discovered that heals the pain you have created,

Can you feel the tenderness of another and be joyful,

Knowing it all comes from the same source,

And you are the artist selecting the perfect colour?

 

Is there even a shred of loneliness still swirling somewhere hidden,

Or have you slain the dragon once and forevermore,

Can you watch the back of someone as they disappear into the night,

And know deep within the Divine will open the door

Revealing the precious lesson that you were sent to learn?

 

Whenever you fly by my soul no matter day or night,

My spirits lift in celebration for the chance of taking flight,

And being held within the fragrance of your delight,

As we dance and sing and love one another right.

 

For many this time can be so dark,

That no light can find the way

Into the chamber that receives the joy,

Can’t catch a single ray,

But I am one who knows the truth,

That you can step outside

The framework of that loneliness

And shout your love with pride.

 

Come, let’s walk the path lined with compassion,

Let’s give everything we have

To alleviate the sorrow engulfing those

Whose plight can be softened by our love.

If someone reaches out to you.

What will be your response,

Can you show them your transparency,

Or are you completely lost?

 

Rejoice, oh heavenly sprite,

Look down upon me now,

Kiss me quick or kiss me not,

I’m yours no matter how.

 

Blessed by your abundance,

Inspired by your presence,

And willing to share it all...
