The way it is

no monk, no priest, no scripture, no belief
can offer the taste of bliss magnetism
so look not in symbols, give soul relief
choose love, bridging the looming head-heart chasm

moments gone by have been consumed by time
thoughts therein are our footprints in the void
be it fear or desire, God feels each chime
so may our heart be pure and unalloyed

Ah this is so comforting to the heart and soul, to know that God feels us and is always within us. I really love “be it fear or desire, God feels each chime so may our heart be pure and unalloyed” Pleasure always reading your work. Hope holidays treat you well. Sending you light today and always
