Deep Ones

I choose

this kind love.

These stars in the trees

beyond the river’s glowing fog.

This heaven that slips through

the layers of my humanity.

Life

is precious

to the whispering

deep ones.

Stars

How beautiful,

to discover the stars

one precious night

at a time.

Beautiful

But isn’t it entirely beautiful

to be you.

Divine

I will always be

the divine love

that is

us.

Unknowing

Do not try to wrap me

with your perfect edges.

Boxes are not for me,

the wind,

the stars that burst

through time,

through space,

through you.

I am all.

Do not limit me

with your unknowing.

Memories

But there you are, darling softness.

Keeper of my hopes, dreamer of my dreams.

How do you hold my heart, this night?

Full of dear, sweet memories.

Full of dear, dear

days and nights gone by.

Let It Become

It is a softness that wanders the fields with me.

Everywhere I go, it is there, sending me off on my uncertain way.

Sometimes, I feel like a small bird, left to battle the raging storms of life.

I do not fight this softness. I only seek to know it well (though sometimes I wish it were a tiger, fierce and free.)

It is me and I am it, this softness of heart.

Let it become.

As You Are

There is no need to be fearful

of the ‘not enough’.

Of the

too different to fit in,

to be chosen.

You are who you are,

and you will rise as you will rise.

Take care

and wander with head held high.

As you are.

To become

you

again

and again.

Someone, Somewhere

Beneath the surface,

gripped by the ripples

of life gone by.

It is a sad softness, and there are cold

lashes of fear, set into the marrow

of my bones.

Take this tender heart, I whisper.

To someone.

Somewhere.

Free

I mourn

the turning of time.

Shall I clutch at the moment,

or the passing days gone by?

Or shall I be free

to stroll the fields, with you?

Free to know the wind

as an ever changing friend.
