Reaching out beyond the dream of what you thought was real, spinning on this ball of life, head now under heel. Ready to die, to live this life so raw, alive on ledge- dancing, hurling, freeing your soul to finally stretch the edge.

Tie me up

Ask me anything you want
take whatever you think you need
Know that I will surely give
for love has made a slave of me

Towering tree beyond my reach
ever stretching toward the sky
never does it fail to shelter
the restless wings of tireless flight

nor does the ocean cease to harbor
whales or turtles or angle faced fish
with never a question and never a doubt
for the heart of love is anonymous

It's not that I crave your hungry, warm kisses
or the grasp of your strong, searching hand
These treats after all are not mine to savor
but I once saw your heart in the world of forever

So ask what you will and take what you need
for mine is the deepest pleasure
when I pray that I give you what you need to become
love's devoted slave, forever

if not for me, then for the world... 

We never lose by loving, only by holding back

  1. Beautiful! Your poem touches me as an expression from our infinite source and reflects spiritually awakened truth way beyond Jeff's post. Confused how you agree with what he wrote.

    1. Thank you for your kindness!
      I am agreeing with Jeff in regard to the option of rearranging. In love, it isn't always about getting what WE want, but in helping others to get what they want or needl. This doesn't necessitate us losing ourselves or compromising. But it does require a generosity toward the goal of Oneness. It is being, beyond ourselves.

  2. Very nice. It goes well with the sound of the Pink Floyd video you posted, and that I´m listening to right now.
