disheartened

being disheartened

when

the truth

which was denied

is being revealed

is natural

the time for life to expand

and reality

to find its proper balance

reminder

dreams of crushed faith

and fear

of humiliation and defencelessness

as to remind

that the realm of dependence

is now behind

and the gates of wisdom

ahead

reality

no one is supposed

to walk an extra mile

for a lie

no one is supposed

to go against

one’s nature

to meet

an illusion

no one is supposed

to inflict pain on oneself

nor anyone else

in order to fulfil

a fancy

yet

it can sometimes be painful

to face

reality

after the rain

being able to give

the body

rest

when rest is what

it claims

can be perceived

as sublime tenderness

on a morning

after the rain

when fear appears

gently leaning

to stay

with wisdom

when fear

appears

in order to let

truth

reveal itself

rather than giving knowledge

the final word

crystal clear

there are times

where

what we say

is not clear

though

there are also times

where

what we say

is crystal clear

and it is the person

in front of us

who is unable

to hear

then the challenge might be

not to let

the confusion

of our neighbour

become

the truth of our life

hasty

learning to trust

that everything happens

for a reason

without jumping

to hasty conclusions

to make ends meet

which do not belong

together

can be

a rather delightful game

once the confidence

has settled

beautiful

while looking for

recognition

we might forget

how

love is

endlessly

irrigating

the fields of our heart

when only we stay faithful

to what is true

and good

and beautiful

break open

when loss

is what

breaks us open

towards

other dimensions

it is still loss

and loss can be

painful

to live

surreal

having been

bound

by a spell

being liberated

can feel

almost surreal

and the challenge

to tell the tale

truthfully

essential
