Heaven's Gate

With so many gifts to 
surrender
I can't empty myself fast enough
so much to give so much to
live
the finishing line is
clear
and clearer every minute
every second I breathe.

It's time to go
release

reform   refit   relax
refill   repent
relieve
in small bits
the soft smells and gentle hits.

Agree and be with the flow of
emptiness
let it flow  enjoy the the newness of
saying goodbye in slow waves
lapping in your soul.
A soft sea, like an
ocean that slows at the
ridge of your feet.  Be rich
and glow with light that
calls you home.

Lilacs still bloom, you feed
what you don't eat to the
great sea of gentility.  Be
generous, it makes you free.
