Mortality

Mortality

The more diseases we discover
The more pathogens we find
The more we come to realize
That the body will die

The desire to be immortal
The desire to live a long life
The desire for health
Originate from the intuitive feeling
That there is some”thing” in us
That is immortal

This some”thing” is not a thing
It has no qualities you can perceive
It is always present and aware
It never leaves you

What is the “thing” that is always there?
What was there when you were
a child
a teenager
a grown up
a senior

When you were
happy or sad
sick or healthy
stressed or relaxed?

The “I” was and is always there
And you can call “Me”
God
Mystery
Awareness
Consciousness
The Great Unknown

I have no name
I have no form
and yet
I have all names
I have all forms

And I
Am
the Love
with
which
you
Love
Life …

Vulnerable

Discovering in total openess
Speaking from deep stillness

Giving from total vulnerability
Receiving in total connectedness

Lets gentle softness surface
like fluffy clouds in midnight sky

Floats through the open windows
like little Whitsun flames

Gives boundless vulnerability
to You as Me
to Me as You …

Trauma

Sometimes
the wounds
are touched
by vibrant ripples
in a conversation

It feels like
tingelings
and tears may drop
and in the heart
they drop on softness

It does not feel like trauma
it does feel more
like little kisses
caressing ancient scars
of what has been

It makes it easier
to feel the pain of them
who still have open wounds
and hurt and hurt and hurt

Come sit with me
and give your wounded heart
I will caress it
and will only leave
when time has come
for you
to leave …
