The many blossoms of the heart

Encouraging your growth

I pour light upon you

Patiently waiting

To see you in bloom

Soon you will be ready

Until then I prepare

your soil bed

welcoming you home

Take hold of me

As you reach higher

Penetrate deeper

Together we are

One.

a small encounter

The poison seeps out of my thoughts

trickling down my neck

merging into the blood stream

filling my lungs with dirty air

I circulate fear this way

lubricating my joints in delusion

until actions become slippery with doubt

Eyes once opened in love

Open only in greed.

Anger beats my heart

Sloth softens my skin

Desire shields what is true.

Envy in my voice contaminates

my stream of consciousness.

Then I dream a new dream.

I will not be bothered by fear

I will crave love not war

I will run like a river flowing

not deluded in anger

I know where I'm going,

Taking pity on those who fight

who resist themselves from within

I am free of these poisonous doubts

that want me to live life in sin

I am stronger than ocean currents

More grounded than mountain ranges

The creator of the universe

resides inside my chest

In perfect clarity I see

It is all just a test

we find the answers

when we lose ourselves.
