Keeping things

Have I never given anything?
Must it be announced
to really be done?
Do you measure and mete
out quantities
to not give too much?
Like rationing?
Is that how you keep
something for yourself?
Does it increase a thousand fold?

Circle of time

There is no hurry
in a life eternal
where things forgotten
are remembered
again and again
in a circle of time

At the well

Love, light, and truth
push the darkness away
the well of faith is abundant

Seeing Clearly

It is so beautiful outside
today...the sun is shining
so brilliantly...maybe that's
why everything is blurry
or can it be that these tears
still come mercilessly...to
tell me it's too beautiful to
see clearly... alone

This conjuring works so well,
thinking of you casts a spell,
and again these tears I can quell

Knocking at the door

I must walk through the door of forgiveness
in order to free myself from the past...
knocking just won't do....

Perception fails us

Perception fails us
with its limits
and that's where
imagination
sets us free...

Done alone

This is the test of my love
...I know
this forced absence from you
When you told me...
you wanted to try separateness
I had one terrible moment of panic
suppose I can't face it?
I'm sure it must have
registered on my face
then I thought that would
ruin me in your eyes....
this lack of strength without you
so I quickly covered it up
but... supposed I can't?
I remember nothing before you
it's as if you always existed
... in my life
It didn't start until you...
We looked at each other
and I attempted a smile
... half hearted
breathing was even difficult
and I realized each intake
each expelling of air
I needed to hold myself together
until I could be alone
... and then the tears ...
then they could come
It's terrible to see someone
... suffering so
and to be able to do nothing
so it must be done
when you're alone...alone...alone
