reaching beyond understanding
is different than
refusing to understand
erect
standing erect
in the unknown
is
more than anything
a tender
relief
impermanence
walking through layers of scattered emotions
unearthed by the wind
left vulnerable
perhaps even broken
in the inner landscape
dispersed into fragments of causes
no longer serving as explanations
somehow inaccessible
to the mind
leaving behind only
the peaceful awareness of
impermanence
stir
heavy wind
howling over flat landscapes
stirring surfaces
of waters
oxygenating emotions
having so far dwelled
in darkness
waiting for light
to reveal
and liberate
the span of
their heritage
gleam
soft and tender light
effacing every shadow
in a gentle embrace
leaving only the gleam of
soft and tender light
faultiness
farewell faultiness
flickering flames
finally fainting
farewell faultiness
all shall be well
unlovable
being unable to express
the love we carry within
does not mean
we do not receive love
though it might veil us in the illusion
of being
unlovable
summon
soft silent solitude
while the birds are sounding
serenades
summoning light
to return
slipping into the heart of a solitary soul
a golden ray of hope
humble
allowing oneself to be
humiliated
has nothing to do with
learning how to be humble
though learning how to be humble
after years of humiliation
might dissolve
the yoke of shame
yearning
silent falling rain
as the light softly return
and every subtle grain
slowly begin to yearn
