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.

Divine

I will always be

the divine love

that is

us.

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.

Heavy

I am a child of the wind.

My bare skin knows the beauty of this life, and yet, within these soft walls, I am bare.

How heavy it is to hold this uncertain hand of mine.

Sometimes.

Remembrance

There she was.

She had always been there

beneath the rubble of crumbling

life.

How sweetly the sun did shine

upon her remembrance.

Welcome home xx

In The Gentle Woods

It is the depths that call me here.

It is the silence

and the bells

of yesterdays wish.

Let there be now.

Let there be this walk alone

in the gentle woods.

As I Am

And I will quietly be

as I am.

Yes, I will quietly be.

She Remembers

How my soul asks to be held.

How she breathes

the cotton thoughts of yesterday

through the trees

as she remembers.

I Am Here

Do not look at my face

and tell me

I am beautiful.

Do not look at my skin

and see your hands

upon my life.

Look at me.

Look at me.

I am here.

I have always

always

been here.

Empty

I open my heart

and close my eyes.

And I am just me.

Just me

in this silent night.

Let me be empty.
