Waterfalls and glistening blades of green grass, spreading wide…
Welcome home, beloved.
You’ve been here all along
The agony you’ve been experiencing
Has simply been
The separation
Of this spirit
From your body, mind and soul.
Your life is hidden here, your spirit has been waiting
For your return
Waiting for you
To ride wild stallions across these hills
Sleep under shimmering stardust
Watch pink and gold sunrises over salty lips and palm branches
So you could dip one toe in the ocean and know
That you are every shark, whale, sea otter, starfish
Every grain of sand
Know
That you have always been loved
With the wracking intensity
Of that moment
You saw heaven in the sunlit sand
When the wind teased the towel off your sleepy face
Loved that much
So much that there’s hardly room
For your shuddering lungs to suck in air.
One day, sweet one, you will be strong enough to breathe
Only and ever the exhale of my love over you
Pulling it deep into every dry crack of your earth
Allowing it’s wind
To blow away the shadows
For good.
Let yourself be consumed
Like the Son
As the sun, burns itself, endlessly
Trust the rising
The Eye of the Needle
