One Day She Said

“One Day She Said” One day she said you will be here present in this life and you will think me dead ghosts cling to light they speak their truths to their infinite God found in the dark the darkest of times like swimming to the deepest depths there that deity resides waiting for our light it breathes us in and out in all living beings a part of Brahman within we ghosts cling to the living glowing in our books of self we produced like children borne from the love and loss of giving joy and sadness we fought wars looking for ourselves in you our children, like religion we thought would shine us new we see you looking for us now and again still in the missing face to wall or window crying or smiling we wrap ourselves around you silky mists of memory velvet soft, we pull all your strings we hide within you touching your heart no matter how good or broken of soul you are you remain the poetry that sings us in we come to you when you believe we still live - we are in the air you breathe the salt you taste in your tears like holy prayers whispered in the dark your light we see burning somewhere for all eternity One day she said you will see (LadyLabyrinth / 2022) gvlm klb, mlb "Watching You Without Me"/Kate Bush https://youtu.be/o-M3ki_GGNw "Watching You Without Me" / Kate Bush https://youtu.be/KVecjIBwR4Q (ORIGINAL VIDEO PLACED AS PRIMARY. However, YouTube user has disabled embed code. Still watchable through their YouTube link) “Brahman is a supreme, universal spirit that is eternal and unchanging. Hindu holy books refer to Brahman as being present throughout the entire universe and Hindus believe that all living beings carry a part of Brahman within them. This divine spark is known as the Atman , or soul, and it is immortal.” “The Katha Upanishad describes Brahman as: That which is awake in us even while we sleep, shaping in dreams the objects of our desire – that indeed is pure, that is Brahman, and that verily is called the Immortal. All the worlds have their being in that, and no one can transcend it. That is the Self (Katha Upanishad 2.2.8)” “One who knows Brahman, reaches the highest. Satya (reality, truth) is Brahman, Jnana (knowledge) is Brahman, Ananta (infinite) is Brahman” (Taittiriya Upanishad 2.1.1) LYRICS/ "Watching You Without Me", Kate Bush https://genius.com/Kate-bush-watching-you-without-me-lyrics PRIMARY VIDEO.
