Fire of Nothingness

I am locked in a prison cell

And in the desperate depths of its darkness

I am slowly breaking down

Dying, until there is nothing more

Thank you !

It is from the fire of nothingness

That beautiful souls are forged

Souls that beget light upon light

A light that spreads through the worlds

How do I endure this journey?

The journey of dying to be born

With patience and surrender.

Patience and surrender.

It is time now

I open up my hands

and simply place my life into Yours

I Admire YOU

be6d8b81323566b18dd9dab42ef578c5

You think you’re weak and frail
That there’s something wrong
Because your life’s upside down
Drowning in pain and fear

But please tell me dear
Who has more courage
Than one who fights to live
Despite life’s violent storms?

You are far from fragile
Look with your hindsight now
Pain has turned you into
The person I most admire

Remember, struggle is a sculptor
Its hands create character
You’ve become more patient, kind and wise
And a quiet strength lies within your eyes

The foundation of a broken home
Must be uprooted from the ground
You’re life is only being torn apart
To make room for a better you

A Journey

465315133b572fbccbe2005ad7cddcd6

The second I saw your blessed face
I understood the meaning of Life
And from that day
No army could stop me
From finding you

I made a sacred vow to leave my life
And search beyond all place and time
Until that precious moment
I could call you mine

I journeyed a thousand new moons
Under flames of the burning sun
Until one morn – knowledge dawned
And I knew the face I saw
Wasn’t born of this world

In my sadness I screamed up high
Where art thou, my splendid Love?
And from within a voice replied

Right here my dearest one
Never have I left your side
I let you roam so you may see
This face of mine is everywhere

The Sun Rises

Do not sleep my friend
The sun rises each morning
Inside of your soul

Stay awake my dear
Witness the splendid beauty
Of this miracle

Faithful Patience

fa1aa0ff71df98bbffeca5c7194507c6

If I pray but receive no answer
I’ll endure in faithful patience
Like the dead forests of winter
Sure of the coming
Of the season of Life

In my patience
I place my trust in your hands
Persisting in silence
As you twist my soul
Cleansing the rag of its tainted water

When the hour of your answer strikes
Like the light that breaks free
From the darkest of clouds
I will give thanks
In both tears and laughter

My wings will spread wide
Carried by Love through open skies
And I will leave behind
The broken home
I lived in patiently
Before you brought me Life
