Lady Labyrinth Poet Free verse

Love Stitches An Ocean

Love Stitches an Ocean


We met once
along the lines 
of short sentences

in the aether 
we exchanged
conversations in dreams

we thought we were poets
but we were just empty chimes
echoing the us before us, 

we existed 
free verse
in the unseen

next time 'round
when we meet, 
again,

you will remember me

you will 
think
déjà vu

they say
there - 
in that time and place

well, 
there, 

there 
are no 
guarantees

but 
they say - 

eventually, 
if it is to be 
believed,

time stands still
we do meet, 
again

we clearly see 

each in the 
other, 
in that strange new time

surreal
the real you
the real me

love stitches 
time back to 
where we began 

where we touch,
and speak 
new sentences 

notes played, again,
the keys 
we should have seen

and held closer, 
to make real
our dreams

we look through 
our windows
in that new time, 

we 
eventually see

the deepest ocean 

that is 
you 

and me

(LadyLabyrinth/ 2022)

I Am Anaya August 12, 2022 at 8:03 PM "We tend to find love not where we look for it but where we find it." Goethe Lady Labyrinth August 12, 2022 at 9:03 PM "The human heart has hidden treasures, In secret kept, in silence sealed; The thoughts, the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures, Whose charms were broken if revealed." Charlotte Bronte Lady Labyrinth August 12, 2022 at 9:03 PM Treasure Hunt is a phrase that comes to my mind. Then, some might say, needle in a haystack.

I Am Anaya August 12, 2022 at 8:00 PM This ancient aboriginal initiation ritual involves exactly this: a long spiritual hike across the indigenous land. “Walkabout,” a rite of passage in which young (adolescent) Aboriginal Australians undertake a journey that will help “transform” them into adults. the individual is required to live and survive all alone in the wilderness. (A similar journey for us to take on)! Lady Labyrinth August 12, 2022 at 9:04 PM We all go on that Walk-About, some of us remain in The Dreaming....or looking for it... Xx

Lady Labyrinth August 12, 2022 at 5:48 PM “It's no good trying to get rid of your own aloneness. You've got to stick to it all your life. Only at times, at times, the gap will be filled in. At times. But you have to wait for the times. Accept your own aloneness and stick to it, all your life. And then accept the times when the gap is filled in, when they come. But they've got to come. You can't force them.” D.H. Lawrence Lady Labyrinth August 12, 2022 at 5:49 PM "One must learn to love, and go through a good deal of suffering to get to it, and the journey is always towards the other soul." D.H. Lawrence

Steven Young August 8, 2022 at 12:15 AM Says to me we are when we~are. Like your outro "you've got to find yourself alone in the world." And when we dive that deep, as in the ocean personified below, there are "arms open, ready to envelope us" our arms. We drown beautifully. Musing your musings. Lady Labyrinth August 9, 2022 at 3:09 AM Thank you. One can listen to advice, but when all is said and done, we follow our own inner voice. Mistakes will be made, this is an inevitable part of life, without mistakes we do not learn, it's how you pick yourself back up again towards your own victories, if you bring others with you along the way, then there are no failures. I cannot imagine life without music, writing, my creative pursuits. Love comes full circle eventually. Steven Young August 8, 2022 at 3:07 AM Life, I agree, it is and the f'd-up instructions abound. I have even been a f'd-up instructor. Attempting to put things right, I feel those arms open up to me as I find my way home. There's love and encouragement in the universe. Just need to stay tuned--listen to the music. Lady Labyrinth August 8, 2022 at 1:45 AM Life is an Ocean, is it not? We are in one constant loop, I feel. I'll muse your musings, which speak of drowning. We resurface in the next life, to put things right, or attempt to, otherwise we are 'recycled' again, like being in a washing machine, or dumped in the surf, and pulled back to shore, or dragged out again...we 'alone' can only 'find' ourselves, our own way 'home' ourselves, no matter how many thrust their well-intentioned, or f'd-up instructions upon us, we alone find ourselves ...

Unseeking Seeker August 7, 2022 at 5:01 AM A singularity yet cognisable by still mind and animated heart in here now duality ~ enjoyed your soft musings LL Lady Labyrinth August 7, 2022 at 5:30 AM a dreadful business, Love.

Lady Labyrinth August 7, 2022 at 3:41 AM Depths. Lady Labyrinth August 7, 2022 at 3:41 AM "Love like an ocean is mercurial. Subject to changing constancy; underneath the waves, in the deepest bed lies true love, watching us tread water, waiting for us to turn late or early, it does not matter; we dive deeper to find its arms open, ready to envelop us. We go searching for pearls, drowning in it all, treasure like wisdom to be found. Life above the waves, Blue Sky reflects light, deeper than we care to admit. Sun and gold found in the unlikeliest depths, lighting up all dimensions. And we rise. Eventually."
