The Wall Broken
 
Abyss of uncertainty, the great black hole,
Jagged memories shifting, light-speed,
Unredeemable,
The sense of falling yet standing still,
This is my heart,
How it beats into the void of emotion,
Drowning in the currents, flowing ever faster,
No sense of bearing, or the ability to catch myself,
Lack of solidarity, no earth below,
No ocean, no trees, no black sand beaches,
Where I long to go,
No.
 
Lack of intention, a falsehood mentioned,
Yet I know the truth -
The reaper reaps, as fragments cascade upon one another,
Destroying the foundation, the wall broken, rocks tumbling
Dead weight into…a darkness so dark,
 Indescribable
Black shroud pulled back, tied in place, the fierce beating -
Death approaching.
Disembodied thoughts fight for dominance,
Scattered into space…uncontainable, destructive,
And I fall swiftly back into that place,
Where only I can go.
No…

Gathering Strength

Gathering Strength

 He came, the Destroyer,
Malevolent masked beast digging tunnels,
Scorching earth,
No…no turning back, no rescue forthcoming,
Forlorn but never broken…almost, ah, yes…
Almost

No turning back from this,

But not quite.
The canopy gone, branches bare,
Exposed,
But roots, how deep they run, reaching
Down…so far down where he can’t reach,
The flames can’t reach, can’t go below
Where the tendrils grow…no.

Dipped into the underground waters,
Gathering strength,
Growing in the dark,
In my secret sacred place I am safe,
Safe as I have always been, bending, yes,
Bending…but

My mind does not break.

Blue Lotus - updated

I come to you
As I always do, slip into the temple
Where we first kissed;
Our secret space still breathes,
The energy alive, vibrant with our hunger
Pulsating Blue Lotus -
Yes, I am yours.

Left with the memories
Of Blue on Red,
Upper and Lower,
We merge, galaxy within galaxy -
You, the river carving new pathways,
I, the bank capturing your waters,
Still wild, still contained

And I come to you, as I always do,
I slip into our temple,
Our Sacred place,
Still alive, Silent yet vibrating,
You are there, yes, you are always there,
Waiting…
Pulsating Blue Lotus -

I am still yours.
