The Edge of the Slippery Slope

The green path down the narrow road leading to my destiny;
A single shadow with a steady step along the spiritual way.
The wind beneath my wings is your deep voice in me after all,
You left my body and soul yet our loving memories still call.

Walking out to edge of the slippery slope in the crashing rain,
A deep breath is taken as the world's quest breaks the pain.
Shall life open the gateway to my one true partner in waiting,
The benevolence of divine intervention, the horror of dating.

A grayness in the thoughts that dare to dream of another,
To trust another spirit with the eternal love of our mother.
He is there in my thoughts yet I will not allow closeness,
Bonded to reality,one part of my heart that's still missed.

This says it all ... white knight, superman, dreams.

Almost Gone

Almost gone, the memories of fate at low tide,
Wishing I could say it's been a fantastic ride.
Wishing on a star that it didn't end this way,
Wishing in my dreams that our life could be okay.

Almost quiet, the frantic beating in my warm chest,
Crying buckets of rain as our hearts take a rest.
Crying as I tally all the days and weeks since we met,
Crying in my dreams, that is the best it will ever get.

Almost ...

Always on my Mind

Oh how my dreams are full of your hugs,
Your arms wrapped around me so snug.
The tender embrace that ends in a kiss,
Unbridled passion in the morning mist.

Our sweet union of the soul and the ego,
Home in the memories of all that we know.
For never will I long for another in this way,
Our love is the greatest romance of the day.

One and one together in our immortal fantasy,
Truth with lasting allegiance both you & me.
Loyalty and trust the cement that forever binds,
Maybe apart in distance,but never in our minds.

Life's Cold Deviation

The terror is almost over, soon I will be far away,
Never to feel the daggers to my heart,one sweet day.

The pouring rain of the sorrow ripping at my brain,
The betrayal of the soul, deception is all that came.

Death has reached into the deepest parts causing unrest,
Deceiving the spirit to think I'd been divinely blessed.

Horror in fact is the truth in knowing the blackness smell,
Corrosion in the heart, piercing the devil's haunted yell.

Enlightenment in each daily meditation of divine activation,
Forever God's spiritual child, saved from our cold deviation.

The Message in Your Dreams

I hear your heart call for me,
Why do you torment my mind?
Am I not free to live?
Why is your sorrow mine?

You thought that it would stop?
You believed the memories would leave?
For someone so intelligent you just
Haven't figured out the mystery yet.

Part of the path is letting ego go,
The lesson to listen to our heart.
The intelligence to embrace our soul.
The courage to face our dangerous love.

Keep running and the message comes in your dreams,
Keep escaping and the loathing crawls in your brain.
Peace in all ways is the answer to the intense fear,
Love is the holy grail we all seek, our greatest quest.

Random Acts of Kindness

There are times when it is not possible or even prudent to return a favor. The Random Acts of Kindness movement is all about just this—passing on a kindness to someone other than the one who performed a good deed for you.

Here are a few questions to consider when someone wants to do something for you:

•Are you concerned with what someone will think of you if you don’t reciprocate?

•Are you concerned with what you will think of you if you don’t reciprocate?

•Do you think most people have ulterior motives when they want to do something for you?

•Do you feel undeserving of anyone doing something for you?

•Are you afraid you will have to do something you don’t want to do if you let someone do something for you?

An experienced Receiver does not fear being indebted to a Giver because the gate of giving and receiving swings both ways—receiving sometimes and giving at other times. It is only when you don’t have practice at both, that it is easy to be confused about what your needs and rights are.
