Changing Tides

Amidst the sea of separation, I swam to meet its shore, where you stood lovingly before me, after years of numbness. Somewhere, divinity washed over you and transformed your face in the changing tides. All the ways, I thought I knew you, trickled down into the sands of times till the waves swept them back into the abyss of the deep blue ocean. Back to where we both were born, out of the single cell that knew no hurt or boundaries. To the place where I was you and you were I. And we shall, from now onwards, forever live there as one, once more.

The River

I sat down the river bank next to my Beloved. In the silence, He spoke: "Watch as she roars forward, allowing nothing to stop her as she makes her way to her ultimate destiny". Not understanding, I turned to Him and said: "But You are found in the silence of our souls. She moves away from You by creating so much noise and distraction. How can she make her way to You?". He Laughed and said: "O My divine child, inside she is as silent as the drop from which she took birth. Inside, she carries with her all life force that runs through you. But you must be willing to step in the water and risk drowning to know what really lies beneath the fearful waves." He Put His Arms around me and lifted me so that I may see as He Pointed: " Notice how she twists and turns, narrows and widens, bends and breaks, goes over and under all the spaces I Have Created in her path." I turned away to look as He said: " She is only joyful to do what I have Created her to do". As He put me down, my eyes widened with wonder. "What is her purpose?" I asked. He smiled and said: "To flow until she breaks her bank, merge into the vastness of the ocean, and allows herself to relinquish as she joins it in oneness." With that, He left me alone next the the river, to savour her journey.

Heart's Calling

O my Lord, teach me to scribble my pen, in Thy Glory
O my Lord, empty this heart’s cup, to fill it with Thy Love
O my Lord, move these feet to dance, to the rhythm of Thy Music
O my Lord, strengthen these arms, that they may carry Thy Will
O my Lord, grow this tree of life, to bear the fruits of Thy Name
O my Lord, chip these stories away, that I may become a vessel of Thy Light
O my Lord, embrace this body so that I may dissipate into Thee
That I may fade to become Thee.
