there is a burden for
each and everyone
no reason to carry more
nor less
than what we are given
and what we are given
is only given us
in order to learn
how
to let go
pouring
pouring rain
softly reminding
how it is when
we accept
our weakness
we grow strong
unexplainable
feeling peace
unexplained
and unexplainable
as a fragrance filling the air
all too aware
it will vanish
just as unexplained
and unexplainable
as it occurred
twisting
hearing
over and over again
that life would be perfect
had one not been
who one is
is twisting
the faculty of hearing itself
track
being abandoned
over and over again
leaves a track in the mind
making it almost impossible
to consider
anything else
possible
…
almost
operation
being given
to remove
the obstacle
which has twisted every perspective
as it was embedded
in the eye itself
is a difficult and delicate operation
where only subtle awareness
can proceed
ourselves
it is when we refuse
to care for ourselves
that we become
selfish
being told
being told
that one’s understanding of things
has nothing to do
with reality
is always disturbing
but when it is true
it is also an invitation
to face
the truth
saying
saying no
when no is meant
and yes
when yes is meant
is just as complex
as it sounds simple
never
turning away
from what
we know to be true
is never
without
consequences
no matter what excuse we find
to do so
