“The Lazarus Heart”
In the moment time stops: suspended; seen in solitary confinement the heart of a soul silent light weighted in the dark, rebellious is the meaning of a name Mary waits four days in the flux The Lazarus Heart kick starts bedevilled by the blessed bees miracles of surrender stung into meaning the passion resurrects the massaged mind found wanting and swollen, she steps in bleeding feet divine supersedure the Lazarus Heart kissed epinephrine the target released the receptor escapes from a cell, a storm in a bad dream Love is a fever responding to light and heat transmitting a signal, the will to live the revolution drum begins to resound the contractual beat, she concedes the graceless Judas Kiss seen in the dark for what it truly is the Passion palms held and lines of a future read abandoned are the legions of neutrality The Lazarus Heart swells like an Ocean her tides full of life, Sun drenched She is no longer dead (LadyLabyrinth / 2020) gvlm/scm

“Though the sword was his protection The wound itself would give him power The power to remake himself at the time of his darkest hour She said the wound would give him courage and pain The kind of pain that you can't hide From the wound a lovely flower grew From somewhere deep inside .”
“Truth is not a statement but a realm, a theatre of operation.”
The Great Awakening/2020: "An "equalizer" that will happen in the year 2020. Something that will bring the world into equanimity and waken a many people up to the truth of our reality." Ascension: "The ascension process is an evolutionary process, which on a spiritual level, involves the raising and expansion of human consciousness. This will create a much more highly evolved planet and a much more highly evolved human being. Everything is energy and nothing is at rest."

The Meaning of the name “Mary” https://www.abarim-publications.com/Meaning/Mary.html Anglicized form of Maria, which is derived from the Hebrew Miryam (sea of bitterness, sea of sorrow). There is much debate over the meaning of the name, however. While "sea of bitterness or sorrow" seems to be the most probable, some sources give the alternative definitions of "rebellion," "wished-for child," and "mistress or lady of the sea." 3. “The Lazarus Heart” / Sting, Lryics: https://genius.com/Sting-lazarus-heart-lyrics 4. 7 Signs 5.

Thank you Daniel. This poem, to be explicit, is about a soul whose heart was considered dead and adrift in a barren place similar to purgatory, but reborn through transformation and forgiveness. Loving your Dragonfly poem. I shall leave my thoughts embedded therein. Leanne

I am already there. In life Schmidt, there comes a time in some souls' lives, when circumstances present themselves when you feel as if your heart has stopped, indeed your whole world has been napalmed by Hell. You don't have to be in prison to be entombed in solitary confinement. Some souls just have enough of the Black Dog and decide to flee this life, and this I can comprehend. I have witnessed another writer escape by that means. But then, there are the souls who's will to live in the external body far outweighs suspended animation and torture in Purgatory, they have unfinished business here in this dimension. I will use my blessed bees to sting and sometimes pain is a good thing, it proves you are alive. Some very strong souls learn to harnass that pain to produce something of great beauty and significance. Call it a Legacy if you will.

As a side note, writing is a cathartic process. This is the way it has been for many writers. Many of the greatest writers, used their writing to self-analyse, self-diagnose and reason. Some of them unfortunately, faced their demons and the soul's heart, lost the battle and will to remain in this existence. Writing is not just a means to deliver an entertaining narrative. Many are aware here of the self-inflated self-righteous egos that delight in harrassing (by that I mean bullying) and eviscerating other's attempts to make sense of their lives, their relationships, the world, through their writing.

These miscreants should be very mindful of the fact, there are writers who are walking a thin line between staying and going (life and death). Writers as a majority, are a sensitive lot. Some writers are psychologically stronger than others, they are war-worn by the constant battle to survive and they have harnassed their pain to write as a way to survive and move forward in life. I would gravitate to those writers as mentors and shut out the noise of bullies. These writers are usually highly empathic and relate well to their colleagues. To those bullies unfortunately amongst us, I would say - what goes around comes around, there is such a thing as Karma. I will ALWAYS defend and stand by any writer against these bottom-dwellers. Critical positive thinking is required on every level. Let us hope there is an ascension process and Great Awakening being experienced by all at present, perhaps then, we can support with love and respect - and get on with the BEING.
