Recovery

The body tried to see because the ego wanted to see 
I am at peace with knowing
The body tried to move because the ego wanted to move 
I am at peace with stillness  
The body tried to speak because the ego wanted to speak 
I am at peace with silence
I am immovable
Spaceless and timeless
Beginningless and endless
There is no want in me
No desire
All material wishes are of the ego
And I remain
Calm

Ego play

I recently learned a lesson on love
After the initial sting
I found myself 
Searching 
For something familiar
The ghosts of the past collided with the specters of the future
My ego reared its ugly head out of Dorian Gray's picture
Reminding me I still have work to do

Refillable

Study everything 
Find your way
Listen to your heart when you feel lost
Feel the source of the cosmos within
And surrender to it
Light the lamp
And uncover the way
Once you've found your own
Rediscover all the beauty
Nothing lost has ever been
Among the sea of flowers blooming
Stillness washes over in colors bold
Attentive curiosity satisfied
And stimulated beyond all measure
Carried into the sea of knowing
Let me reside in the breath

potential

what if
what if you could die
what if you could be reborn
what if you could be who you are
what if
what if you found love
what if you found life with me
what if the sun illuminated those around us
what if
what if i could offer you solace
what if you surrendered
what if all your fears vanished in the ether
what if 
what if paths crossed
what if we decided we were really ready
what if we were delivered unto each other
what if
what if we went with it
what if we created a new life
what if we were happy individually together
