When the moment comes, will you see me, know me? When the moment comes, will my soul rise within me? When the moment comes, will time bend in on itself? When this moment comes, will it reveal the me to myself? Words fail me and I become a child, speechless. My soul awakens and risesContinue reading “Moment”

How many countries must I leave How many religions must I abandon How many masks must I remove How many people must come and go How many times must the heart break Before my I is naked enough The sun always rises and sets The waves forever crashing on the seashore The galaxies speeding throughContinue reading “I”

He had been running from the beast his entire life, yet was still caught by surprise when it dawned on him that it had already caught up to him. The bitter and endless coldness that spread through the marrow of his bones the sign that the beast had finally sunk it’s teeth deep into hisContinue reading “The Beast”

I remember the mountains of Africa where I use to seek my God in prayer, my face to the ground and my knees on the sharp rocks. I swore I heard his voice in Jerusalem as I walked the streets of the old city, my heart open and my faith as big as the loveContinue reading “Prayer”

Down the centre of the borderlands, in the no mans land between what we believe we want and what we truly desire, runs a river. It’s a river of revelation of purification and discernment, in which everything without a true anchor will be swept away into oblivion. Its waters softly whispers deception, bringing confusing, testingContinue reading “The River”

What is hope if it is not the creative force of the universe contained within a seed. What is the power of creation if not a single thought contained in the artist mind. What is love if not the simple acts of kindness extended in complete unawareness? What is joy but the act of recognisingContinue reading “Simplicity”

In the pale moonlight of my melancholy I walk these shores. Where the waves of your beautiful mind crashes over my soul. Turning dark sand into sparkling diamonds dancing in the night. Your words a twirling mist, creating shapes and streaks of joy. I could easily wrap myself up and disappear in this cloak ofContinue reading “Ocean”
