The inner revolution of
The deeper revolution of
The utter revolution of
The soul.

Can feel that I am free to truly
Know that I AM FREE
The branches are empty as the birds have flown.
The tree still hopes for new nests to be sewn.
The night has passed and it's time for the dawn.
Yesterday is there but the shadows are gone.
Dear John,
If you thought the altitude was bad in Colorado, you should feel it up here.
In one breath, I am gone.
Sometimes, my mind goes with it...

bliss,
in terror
there is no limitation,
anywhere,
that is not self imposed
One conundrum after another
The days go spiraling away
Seems each moment is a blur

Shining under starlight
Creeping among the twilight
Cuts and bruises, scar your heart

There is a river running through your soul,
and it’s just begging you to drown.
Not die.
Just abandon yourself to its ebbs and flows,
crest waves of the non-lingual,
plumb depths you never knew you never knew.
