The Soul's Journey

The sky embraces
The beauty of our love.
Unshed tears remain
Unreleased as in dark clouds
Filled with heavy rain.
The colors of the rainbow
Hold fast our secrets
Shared in separation
Forever kept safe 
In our soul’s dimension.
I hear your voice 
In whispers of the wind
As your shadow
Walks with mine
Hand in hand---
One day my tears
Will mingle with the rain
As I journey to your side
Once again.

You are the love that is the sky. And perhaps you and I are expanding into a consciousness that is as large, beautiful, gray, and even passionate as we can imagine. Perhaps we are antennas just beginning to comprehend the idea of expanding creativity, forever leaving behind our habit of reacting. A lifetime of reacting--is that us? I believe we have a destiny with knowing who we are--an awareness of expanding understanding, releassing judgment, and knowing who we are--One with each other.
