When your heart breaks in two
You can’t help but cry
And wonder why cycles repeat,
It’s hard not to see
The failure of love,
Hard not to feel the defeat.
But I’ve taken some time
To examine my truth
Beyond its dreams and delusions,
Have moved away
From anger and pain,
Made some final conclusions.
Love seemed a distant caller
And in my heart of hearts
I can only remember,
That when it came close
I was less than verbose,
Not committed to total surrender.
The Looking Glass showed me
The many faces
Of the love I left behind,
Didn’t understand
I was acting out thoughts
Of lack in my Magdalene mind.
When your heart breaks in two
You can’t help but cry
And wonder why cycles repeat,
It’s hard not to see
The failure of love,
Hard not to feel the defeat.
It hasn’t been easy
To get to this point,
Feels like a few thousand years,
But I AM approaching
The perfection of love,
As I finally let go of my fears.
Whoever said love was easy
Against these shadows
Of internal chatter?
All I can say is
Do the Great Work, for
Enlightenment comes with the latter.
This time I will open
My heart to the now
And see love for all it can be,
Without limitations
Or false expectations,
A new palette of colors in me.
