Ripples in a pool

 

You heard My heartbeat from afar
A pulse heard across the universe

 

My whisperings, beyond possibilities
Answering a prayer sent through the stars

when i dropped the first pebbles in the wall
i was building around and about myself

to insulate my insecure, unsteady self
against the tides that came too fast

i'd realized the time had come

albeit, too late for me
to avoid, my fate as my world

Came Crashing down,
around me

you were there, to share your heart
What you had, most, not to give

i sensed a caring soul, in you
in you, a familiar pattern gave rise

and i a practicing word dancer...
listened to your heart

as i surmised a kindred spirit
lived within a tower menacing and tall

so, despite my troubled mind,
i climbed inside your headspace

saw my reflection broken
entered in to get a better look inside

when i heard the words in my spirit mind
pushed away all things defined

i ventured where i ought not to go
by inner voices ...and let you know

with no uncertainty i was
interested in what was inside

i didn't know what you believe...
but, when i saw within you ...a need

a companion spirit to walk beside
on the journey back to life

a place to plant the seed
of understanding

Where now Is the way for us
then i heard the angels sing

when love calls...
you are the answer

As certain as i am this is not a dream
Of what unseen I carry as my compass,

Exploring where I cannot be lost
Bearing the cost, rather than the cross

is no solution to this quandary
In the cauldron of this momentary madness

As choices made with passion fade
And seasoned reason

Demands that Motions made
Reflect upon a solution

Built of timely contributions
To get us quickly out of this maze

Before the magic
fades
