The Mislaying of Love and Faith

Do you remember us When once we lived amidst this great field of consciousness do you remember how we were how in harmonic flow we perceived and in this our loving connection we praised, our gratitude, the appreciation this was our worship for all of your creation Do you miss us Do you miss our voice, our laughter and joy our celebration the soaring music of our daily dance do you wonder where lost we are do you miss the artful beauty of human life as in creativity it sought to enhance this grand scope gifted of you the intelligence of harmony the knowing of unity Do you remember us when we were For now our voice cries only sorrow and loss in the horrors of wars and economic gods we perceive now only struggle and only live for survival narrowed in the constraints of hope and its desperate tunnel yet no longer friend but enemy to everyone upon the ritual of stamping boots as it blends or misbegotten kinship Do you not miss our love Do you wonder where we have gone Into a silence of disconnected while our now tiny voice weeps and no longer echoes through the stars and centuries we bow our heads in prisons and have come to be the lonely forgotten children who once held the inspiration of dreams now merely to praise an aberration Is this truly what you wish from us to be so isolated so divorced from the fanfare of life so roughshod in our approach so unaware of the miraculous is it to be so for us to be for us to be so oblivious of you and so senseless of ourselves to have reached this cul-de-sac to have come to this stunted evolution If then this is what you desire I must to your design I yield but with this cognizance you have granted I must speak my mind, from my heart and soul ask you why such a terrible waste why should such a human tragedy to befall when once we lived amidst this great field of consciousness do you remember how we were how in harmonic flow we perceived and in this our loving connection we praised, our gratitude, the appreciation it was all our worship then for all of your creation Do you remember us Do you miss us Do you wonder where we have gone
