Knowing and forgetting

What if I told you
Awareness happens
What if I told you
When you listen
You hear it
Truth
What if I told you
Knowledge is yours
Has been yours...
What if I told you
You were born with knowing
That this life you live
Educating yourself
Establishing yourself
Securing yourself
Is merely 
An elaborate process
Of forgetting
All that you were born 
KNOWING!
What if I told you
Sometimes when we are awake
We see it
We catch glimpses of it
It....
I am lost for words
How does one describe "it"
"It"
Is a return 
To the original state
Uncontaminated 
By learning
Unpolluted by
Stuff
Stuff being junk
Collected along the way
Diplomas and degrees
Jobs and statuses
Cars and houses
Bank accounts
Boats
Clothes 
Things
Vulgar 
Yucky 
THINGS
THINGS CAUSE US TO FORGET "IT"!!!

My heart is alive 
My soul speaks 
It tells me things 
The same things
Souls tells other beings
Other humans just like me
Some listen
Some have written songs
Some poetry,
In the olden days 
Some wrote of caves
...

Yes my souls speaks
And I listen 
And I am at peace

Remembering 
Ahhhhhhh remembering
Remembering the things 
I knew in the womb
And as a baby
Yes remembering
That is a good feeling...

"Your loving me has helped me grow into the healthiest me..."

"I love you because of you..."

In life we cross paths
With catalysts 
When it is time
When we are ready
And not a moment sooner 
Or later 
When it is time
The catalyst will present itself
Listen to your soul
It will tell you when
It will tell you
It is time....

The language of love

I think love was...
Before all was
Before there was a world 
And day
And night
And words
And clothes
And jobs
And homes

There was love
Before all that 
I think that is why
Love does not understand
The words
And logic
And time 
And money

I think that is why 
We make love
Not sex 
Not fuck
Those are different
We make love
And that is different
The clothes come off
The world comes off
The words come off

I think that's why we look
And time stops
It's love
Before there was time
There was love 
That is why you close your eyes
And see mine
Before there was sight
There was love

I think that's why
The mad man laughs
He is in love
Before there was madness
There was love
I think that's why we call it
Madly in love

I don't think love causes pain
I think separation from the one we love
Does that
We think and separate
We fear and separate
We hurt and separate
And we blame love
Before there was separation
There was love

I used to wonder 
Where it went
The love
That we fell out of
Now I wonder
Was it love
You do not ever
Fall out of love
There is never a scarcity of love
Love remains
If you fell out 
I don't know what 
You fell into...
But it was not love
Before there was falling
There was love

If there was love
Before there "was"
Then love "is"
And one shall never want for love
Then why the panic
Over love
Love is
All around us

If we gave up
The fear
The hurt
The words 
The clothes
The world
All that we would be left with
Would be love...

Oh wow!
Just love

"Imagine there's no heaven"!!

What a wise man that was...

"You may think that I'm a dreamer... But I'm not the only one!"

I wonder 
If so many people 
Come to the same dream
Is it really a dream
Or are they just the ones
Who WAKE UP

Am I just a dreamer
Laying here awake...
As I think this in my head
Or am I just AWAKE 
And scared to go to sleep
Afraid that I might slip 
Back into the dream 
Of a world
With days
And nights
With words
And clothes
And jobs
And hurt 
And fear
And separation 

"I did not want to lose you before I said goodnight..."

The exquisite beauty of the words...

When you love you never lose!
 
You lose in all-
The world
The jobs
The words
The fear
The hurt
The separation
You lose in all
EXCEPT for love
You never lose in love

When you love you never lose...

Grace

In the silence of my heart 
He speaks to me
In the quiet, steady thrum of heartbeats His voice I hear...
He speaks to me of forgiveness
He speaks to me of grace
How gently he talks
How softly he loves
How kind is his presence
He speaks of grace-
He teaches me grace
He is...
Grace

Heart day

They run like zombies
Dead souls in undead beings
Dead before their time
Celebrate a day of love
Chasing candy hearts
In flowered 
rose petal dreams
Love...
Hah!
They know not what it means
They speak of the beauty of their love
Reference flesh and bone
And all the while they miss the 
Essence
Of the one beside them
Flowers 
Chocolate
Candy hearts
Diamonds
Carbon?!
Really
???
That denotes love?
A day for love
A day?!
To celebrate LOVE 
A DAY?
Love
love...
LOVE!
Feel it
Sense it! 
know it
In your being
Your soul is love
You
Are
Love
And where is he/she/it
???
The 
One?
You love?
Need you seek it?
Or do you seek 
To possess 
To have
Acquire
Own
He/she/it
When you love
If you love
You
Simply 
Love
Near
Far
Wherever you are
You love
He/she/it
Love 
Is not a language
Love is not an act!
Love is not a feeling 
Love is...
Love 
Simply 
Is...

Perspective

Like a wave it washed over me, awareness... What I want to do with what's left-
LOVE
I WANT TO LOVE!
Insanely, madly, deeply...

Kisses in the rain

When you've lost it all
Yet again
When you hoped and yet you failed
When you build and all falls down
When you cry and even the tears have run out
When the very edge of sanity wears thin
And there is nothing left to hold on
In that moment of despair
In that sliver of space
When all has lost meaning
And nothing makes sense
In that sliver of space
If you look closely
With eyes wide open
Soul wide open
Heart wide open
Despite all the pain
If...
You choose to stay 
Open
You will find 
In that sliver of space
Your
TRUE 
self
And you'll 
NEVER
Feel
Hopeless
Ever
Again
Hold on 
Just a little bit longer
And then
Just a bit more
Open 
Don't close
Your eyes
Your heart
Your soul
Look deep 
At 
The beautiful
Human
You
ARE
YOU MY LOVE
ARE INVINCIBLE!
And yet so fragile
You my dearest
Are wrought
Of the fiber of the universe 
You 
ARE
HEART
YOU
ARE 
A
SOUL

And the winner is...

Many moons ago
She gave me a card 
...and the winner is...
Many moons ago 
Another demanded 
I punish and reject her
For giving me a card
Many moons ago
I refused to harm her
A beautiful human
Many years later 
She spoke of a souk
Where an old man
Gave her her first Quran 
"I hope you find your answers" he said
Many years later she gave me a song
..."you'll be okay..."
Yesterday
I learned forgiveness
From a man 
Who forgives me for being me
Yesterday, I saw four men
Three manipulate
Three control
Three very unforgiving men
Not because of me
But because of them
And one man 
Forgave
He does not manipulate 
And the winner is
Forgiveness
You'll be okay 
Let the inner goddess shine
And 
You'll be okay
We have all the answers 
Sometimes it takes 
The forgiveness or the stand of another 
To forgive 
To help us take a stand and forgive
Ourselves 
And we'll be okay
And the thing is...
The "winner" is...
Us
When one of us forgives 
We are all forgiven
When one of us wins
We all win
We'll be okay
...
