freedom
the calling
You are
with me
within me
every second
of every moment
Yet, I live the truth
of ‘You’ away from ‘I’
Yet I feel
this intense separation
from home
Like an unborn child
pulled away
from womb
Like the thirsty desert
that longs for rain,
an affliction
with no remedy for pain.
Sleepless at night
restless for days
Beloved, your memory
stirs me awake.
My trembling lips
heaped with sighs,
endless tears, in your name
are now running dry.
Without you, my essence,
how am I
to stay alive?
Calling out
my entire being
leaps,
gasping
for a breath ..
I miss you.
Take me home.

Light
has always been there
never beyond reach
flickering
at times flaming wild
defined spaces
clear boundaries
but to have a heart
that has bled much
loved much
it is in darkness
that the human in me
comes to life.

So much poetic beauty in this piece, couldn’t keep it to myself 🙂
Wishing you all much love and light x

I taste you
in breathing waters
hear you
in the laughing sky
flying
into the light
I take a dip
in eternity
each moment
pregnant with you
my feet
touch
only
to kiss
the holy ground
adrift
winged freedom
nudging gently
white nakedness
floating midair
quietly fading
in pure light
wild sandalwood burns
scattering freely
diffused thoughts
coming together
flowing apart
slow dancing
to eternal music
leave me here
unto myself
forever adrift
in holy suspension
freedom
we chase
in holy mischief
butterflies
on a gentle breeze
giggles and laughter
amid songs of bees
like children
lost in time

don’t be afraid to show
what you know
what you hold inside
whats kept hidden
suffocates, slowly dies
or worse what you make visible
will be perceived as a lie
only the truth that is burning well
will help you survive
a deeper knowing, a fearless thought
a feeling that consumes alive
say what is on your mind
while you’re still full of life
let go, love, express, ignite
it is definitely worth a try
my love, don’t be shy
no breath comes out of a dead self
not even a sigh!

‘.. you are free with me’
he said
I giggled –
knowing how I am
helplessly enslaved
by his mere touch
delusional veil
what a world of illusion you created
a world of maya
where forgetfulness and confusion is the norm
and people seek comfort in each other
trying protecting their wounds
taking each step with caution
not realizing all of us are beggars
with torn clothes and broken hearts
looking for the same gem
like a child
who is given toys
as a distraction
you filled the world
with forms and colors
shapes and feelings
that people spend their whole lives
to own, tolerate and as a tool to find meaning
one person’s hell
is another’s heaven
stepping on each others whims and desires
most people wander around with chains
tied around their necks and bodies
like slaves pulled in all directions
by society, by their own dreams
yet handful, just a handful
the lucky ones, the chosen ones
find liberation, find freedom
while trapped in this body
in this web of delusion!

winged freedom
nudging gently;
white nakedness
floating midair
quietly fading
in pure light
wild sandalwood burns
scattering freely
diffused thoughts
coming together
flowing apart
slow dancing
to eternal music
leave me here
unto myself
forever adrift
in holy suspension
cherry blossoms
two butterflies
translating wordless wonder
through vibrant wings of youth
seduced by fragrant company
swamped by ripples of laughter
they suckle on freedom’s joyous nectar
