love is a lofty ideal
croon of tenderness
sounds right, feels good
but how may we share
what we do not have
a hollow emptiness
engulfs our body-mind
womb of space suffocates
we are uncomfortable
in our own skin
being empowered
we pause the cause
of our heart contractions
by befriending silence
refuge of our soul
we are extracted
from our ambedo trance
brutally by the tongs of ego
drawing attention back
to cravings of form
yes, we live here
negation will not help
escapism is not the cure
so we must discover
the absolute truth
discerning mind
is what we first employ
because that is what we have
so we rapidly comprehend
head-heart discord
the thinking mind
merely navigates life
but it is the radiant heart
that pulsates with love
the joy soul seeks
mind oscillates
but love is steady
thus we deem as logical
to meld mind in heart
to feel complete
we test the waters
and find love is the way
being the language of God
but we must first forgive
all those who deceive
yes, we suffer loss
by close ones betrayed
yet as a nonchalant witness
we surrender outcomes
to will divine sublime
God is easily pleased
He delights at our ascent
so awakens in us Holy Spirit
transmuting feeble form
into eternal living light
the false falls away
we now see who we are
the Self made in His image
resplendent with light
in the cave of heart
ego that never was
a mere bubble of delusion
bursts noiselessly in the void
now there is no one here
save the light of Self
love, light and bliss
pulsates day and night
the ignition renewal continual
hidden thus in plain sight
is our open secret
