Becoming

The love you lost the way to

Is seeking you

It lives inside your heart and soul

So do not think the way to truth will be shown

By looking everywhere else

Because oh so often people and our ideals fail us

There was a heartbreak that you endured

That felt like death

A splintering you sensed

That left you fragmented

So like a lost child whose missing pieces called her onwards

There was a spiral staircase you climbed

Only then to find yourself descending

Into the place of the ancestors

Lately there is a song that wakes you

Just before dawn from a deep sleep

That contains the remembering

Calling you home to the one who aches

Do not avoid her

For she also contains mankinds’ heartache

Some think freedom can be found by runnning

But in the end all that happens is

You lose the way

And then must fall

Into the deepest pool of longing

That you sought to negate

Which was

The deeply regenerative place

Of your soul’s

Becoming
