In the Missing

“In the Missing” In the missing you never left I walk with you you still talk with me We share our secrets silently we escape worldly charades we are touched, some say we are ghosts of our former selves they see what we aren’t they walk through us they don’t know us well, at all, they listen to their walls to shut us out we speak our mind with closed mouths Love is all we feel acute signs tips of our fingers trace the delicate symmetry of our silent smiles kissing the lips of our wet sunrise, lines are not drawn here within our Eden as below so above we are gifting sensual pardons you rain o'er my skin the mist of you, haunting "I am", you whisper "all there is for you" left in the beautiful time of madness Autumn undresses slowly there becomes the spring of you In my hidden winter garden I listen to you, you are the Summer unseen I see you, in my forest I sense you, In the leaving we exist, in this moment never ending veils are thin here where once our love was treason you now speak I am in love, so I listen in the disappearing time we remember, we met here each the other We, understood very clearly the act of immersion, in our simple poetry we became each the other "We" became the gentle art of being strange gods exotic creatures In everything I see you, we move easily here flowing towards each other spilling through the opening of each closing season drowning delighted in our dream sun and moon reflecting invisible on tears glistening diamond pools mirror images naked mysterious rainforest fools in the time of our singular eclipsing In the missing you never left me I walk with you you feel me, I hear You watch I touch you in another world we both listen to each other metronomes stroking heart beats You never left me in the missing the others, just disappeared Anahata (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) Bamboo Flute Music, Heart Chakra, 432 Hz, Cleanse Negative Energy, Healing Music, Meditation Music https://youtu.be/WbIA3HKSefM as Below, so Above - reversed/mirror "As above, so it is below.

"...each living creature is said to be alive and to be the same individual-- as for example someone is said to be the same person from when he is a child until he comes to be an old man. And yet, if he's called the same, that's despite the fact that he's never made up from the same things, but is always being renewed, and losing what he had before, whether it's hair, or flesh, or bones, or blood, in fact the whole body.

And don't suppose that this is just true in the case of the body; in the case of the soul, too, its traits, habits, opinions, desires, pleasures, pains, fears-- none of these things is ever the same in any individual, but some are coming into existence, others passing away.” /Plato
