Somewhere from deep within I hear a baby crying
It has been crying for centuries
Sadness a deep sadness today
I don’t want to face it or live in it anymore
The winds blows and I remember
The dark dark days
When it felt like life couldn’t go on
This way for another day
I could not stand it
Too much hurt
Too much pain
Too much aloneness
No way to reach across the bridge of deep isolation
That separated me from life
Now I cannot live this way anymore
Disconnected alone
What was I replaying all those years?
It is a mystery to me
I have awoken here
Everything seems a dream
Dreamt by another dreamer
Dreamer awakens
The illusion crashes
That love comes from outside
Falls and splinters to pieces on the ground
Love is just what you do on any day
It is the action you take
In reaching a hand across the void of separation
To give
To trust
To connect
Living, giving, tusting, connecting
These are
The demonstrations of love
Without them life is sad and dead
And I do no want
To live in sadness and deadness any more
