timeless travelers return

Ancestral eyes,

Peering

From the depths

Within our souls

Speak to us

In ancient ways

Calling to our senses

By means

We seldom

Know

By starlights

...glow

As i look

Deeply into the stars

Finding patterns

Of remembrance,

Waiting there

So, as i

Walk

Into the light

 

I am

Struck blind,

By visions

Of the ones

Who've come

Before

After my vision fades,

Finding myself,

Lost in the smoke and in the mists

Of another day

Seeing battlefields

Of long lost days before

Of wastelands

Burned ruins

Of places...

Torn and plundered

Silent plains...

Undiscovered truths

Now, all but

Ignored...

Still, there is...

A lesson to be learned,

By the voices of the dead

Even through

The blood and gore,

...the screams of pain,

Lost visions

Obliterated, if not

Utterly destroyed

Of echoes

Of lost sihoettes

Forever more

Faded

Into the timeless void

The reign of sorrow

Which comes to all

For far too little gain

But who can

...stop the rain...

 

And when

The spinning in my head

Releases me once more

Opening my eyes...

I find myself in tears

As if, in a dream

Almost, as in

Another sense of being

One

Step further

From our primordial

Ancestral lines...

We are being led

To gather, here...

Instead, being

Drawn together,

Here, willingly to travel

With our souls lights

Swimming as if in a school

Of others  ...of like

Nature, kind and peaceful

Exploring in...

An ethereal sense

To a space between

Forever...

And eternity

Within the place

Where

The arc

Of visions blend,

Light bends...

And by the gift

Of our aligned hearts

All of mankind

Are

Granted

A second chance

To be reborn

 

When we share...

Our gifts

...we show a spark

Of who we truly are

Shine on, like

All lovers

Of life...

 

 

We

Chance

To expand

Our deepest

Emotions

In ways that come

From a tendency

To dance

To live and love,

Break free

Of the chains

That

Keep us

Unduely bound,

And speaking

For

Ourselves,

Find

A separate peace

From others

Whose

Patterns of belief

Are far, too

Centered

On themselves,

Free our minds,

To climb

...to a place

Beyond

The positions

Of the stars

...in this

Space in time.
