reaching the end of
forbearance
might be
the beginning of the end of
ยจ
repression
to let
the reality
of unconditional love
unfold
unendingly
repressed
nervousness
repressed
yet
recognised
nervousness
that the sensation
of suffocation
is not yet entirely
metamorphosed
into abundance
of love
dusty
a dream of sublime beauty
after a dusty door
in the heart
had been pushed open
by the most wonderful light
of a longing desire
reaching towards
peace
raw
a soft wind
chasing the leaves
as fall is falling
towards decay
leaving only
the raw structure
of nature
to endure
the transformation
embracing
facing
and embracing
the shadow
of shame
is inevitable
on the path
to reconciliation
reason
when the door
to the deeper meaning
of everything
for one reason
or the other
has been closed
the gates to the tyranny
of emotions
are left
wide open
unanimous
accepting
our weaknesses
opens the door
to compassion
though it might not lead
to unanimous admiration
mockery
when mockery has become
the way
to respond
to vulnerability
love is often lost
in translation
as the one being
vulnerable
and ridiculed
might not see the fun of it
personal
coming to faith
can only be
a personal path
and yet
we never walk it
alone
shrub
when being transparent
no longer means
being invisible
rather
that the light of the soul
is given to shine
freely
into the world
somewhere
somehow
a grain of determination
has grown into a shrub
of love
