broken open

Sometimes I feel the distance between us growing more

As the void opens to reveals a swirling sea of struggle

Here within the depths the ancestors voices call to me

Telling me its an essential thing

All of this suffering

There was a cleaving that began

When man thought he could

Triumph over nature

And then said that nature was

Nothing but empty space

Rather than full of grace

And hidden beauty

There is a time to see how much suffering

We created

When we split the two

Mind and matter

Losing the path to love

Making fear the victor

Isn’t it time to awaken

To what we have done?

We are only as foresaken

As we are blinded

Nature, so full of love

So awake

Breathing

Alive

Do not deaden it any more

This connection

Place both feet on the ground

And roar

We are living for a time when

We say goodbye to all that keeps us split

And the way home

Only lies through

A fully broken open

Body

Mind

And heart.
