I Am

Standard

I find myself 

Wandering in the densest

Forest.

Without a sound I lay myself down

In the moss, the twigs, the leaves

And I breathe.

I am them and they are me,

The earth,

The stars,

This air.

And that has to be enough in this moment 

For I hang on silently,

The merest

Particle

Brushing my fingertips;

As this air strums my

Out of tune heart,

Strings stretched to snap.

Thump.

As my heartbeat slows i am

Reimmersed;

Securely wrapped

In the cocoon;

The womb, The tomb.

In stillness I become the miraculous healing.

All else is released but love.

In a gasp of breath reborn;

Nothing remains to mourn.

I am.

Individual

Standard

No human can magically turn you into something you are not;

A caterpillar turns itself into a butterfly.

We share information,

We share ideas,

But the individual has to do the internal work.

We have our own magic and the humble honest teacher

Leads only by example ,

For they realize they themselves are the ever learning student

as well.

We each have knowledge and experience to share;

wearing not one label or the other in the flow.

Trust your knowing.

Cocoon

Standard

Seems she has been in her cocoon
For some time now.
Lingering
There,
In between.
Wings damp
Eyes wide open
Wondering if maybe she took too long,
For she has always been one to fall behind.
Following her heart in haste
Leaving her mind reeling;
Confused by the games.

(She thinks she was sleeping while they read the rules)
She had immersed herself in
Her own
Ethereal
Delicious love
Only to find herself alone
Upon
Emerging from the healing.
She will rise up through
The air
Now.
She is aware
Ceilings, walls

And floors
Are imaginary.

Soul Light

Standard

It’s not like i can’t take being tough.

Or someone being rough.

It’s not like I am so fragile I will break.

It’s just I am getting tired of holding things at arms length.

My senses have grown fatigued

Waiting for a battle that might just be the end of me.

My defenses have laid to rest

From lack of will I guess.

I think I am ready to rest a while.

I would love to wallow in love.

It is all I have been thinking of.

Breathing,

While my heart is beating.

All the while I am healing

Wrapped in a cocoon shielded from the storm

That rages within and without.

Myself invisible to those who come around

With malice in their hearts.

And when I am ready to emerge,

The pain and sadness purged,

Nothing will be able to penetrate

What my soul light

Was able to

Create.
