I really enjoy sitting in stillness and FEELING that Presence that IS and then allow my heart to speak words to express this sweetness..
Can we do this ? jsut Write whatever you feel when u reach that place that cannot fully be explained.. that place that is so beautiful and satifying.
Can you join me . i will begin.


To the end of the world in search of you.
As you guided me back to the beginning is when i knew.
the journey to lose myself, to find my truth
this dying contributed to my growth.
To lose everything , to learn my worth

There is no place that id rather be
than right here where u put me
Guided by your love
a taste of your sweetness is more than enough
to surrender my everything.
willingly giving it all away
so nothing can get in our way
As we dance through the moments
Free from time, Free from the mind

Can this be love, the way that i feel

Amidst the darkness, you called my name.
just for a moment i felt no pain.
a sweetness that fed my soul
AS i began to walk away.
they shouted at me to stay, they say have you gone crazy?
i turn around to try to explain , they tell me that i am going insane.
I try to find a way to prove this feeling
nothing works, i just grow weary.
then you voice again takes me..
this time i walk away, they cant make me stay..
they shout, they scream, they become soo mean,
you've lost your mind, truth you will never find.
Away from the darkness i kept on walking and followed your voice
I can hear theie judgement from a mile away, as i give thank to you that i chose not to stay.
your sweetness so much better that the darkness
you held my hand and comforted me,
i was scared, but you were always there.
your love surrounded me and i rested in your truth.
I couldn't prove to them to follow what they didn't feel,
I couldn't make them hear what they said was not real.
but i had to leave , and i found you.

And then I realized in a moment of insight, the voice was mine all along....it was loving myself that set me free, and made me incredibly strong...I Knew then where was the light...And the voices of those I left behind, faded and became weak...how could I speak? and tell them they were wrong..How could I tell them that peace was within them, and they too could come along.

And yet we are all along just one, and no one is ever simply alone... but the voice is not mine or yours, but the whisper of that which accompanies each and all on his or her or its path and way ... to guide, to shine, to live inside... and more and more emphatically the drum is beat to reach and thrive outwards too... calling more strongly to respond to all... no one is exempt, no one is alone. How could we not speak? and be honest and true on our quest... for union, for bliss, for love of all.

To all the poets in the forum....... thank you...... nice touch.

Nothing original here..... from a favorite..

And still, after all this time, the Sun has never said to the Earth,
"You owe me."
Look what happens with love like that.
It lights up the sky.

Default from Rumi with love

Rubaiyat #1246

The moment I first heard of love
I gave up my soul, my heart, and
my eyes.
I wondered, could it be that
the lover and the beloved are two?
No, they have always been one.
It is I who have been seeing double.

---Rumi
