when a dark cloud
of sadness
is closing in
on the heart
there might not be
much else to do
than
let it pass
any kind
when the urge
to save
the world
is gently being replaced
by
the urge to serve
love
any kind of manipulation
ends
something wrong
that particular
sadness
and frustration
which comes from
the sensation of having
done or said
something wrong
without being able to discern
what
immune
growing immune
to our neighbour’s
unconscious fear
through
a shield
of love
disguise
deciding whether
it is fear
or love
we serve
is only possible after
a thorough discernment of
the disguise
both love
and fear
has been dressed in
for the ends to meet
which otherwise
made no sense
only then
do we have
the freedom
to choose
stepping stone
becoming able to perceive
what is truly possible
through the dissolution of
the conviction
everything ought to be so
might be another stepping stone
towards
reality
every possible choice
reaching the crossroad
where
every possible choice
is leading towards
salvation
is where mercy
is accomplished
and freedom
found
regret
the sadness
and immense regret
of having permitted
transgressions
in the conviction of being
understanding
locked
odd dreams
reflecting
subtle changes
in a mind
locked
in a wound
which never healed
opening towards
scar formation
who we are
abandoning the expectation of
who we are supposed to be
can be an invitation to become
who we are
