Trudy Schrader Poet Rhyme

Unity In the Void

Separately, I have walked
Through the darkest night
Moving methodically
With my inner light

As fear and terror arose
In the midst of surprise
Meaning surrendered
To TRUTH revealed in accepted lies

The need to know ahead
The past left far behind
What is, existing in silence
And I, am now, willingly blind

....I stand

No more rhythm or sound
No drum beat to gather round
No purpose to be fulfilled
No more TRUTH to be revealed

...in the know

Becky Forbes October 20, 2022 at 6:14 PM "in the know"... LOVE IT! Becky Forbes October 20, 2022 at 7:27 PM To me it is what the caterpillar goes through in the cocoon... is completely dissolved before resurrecting anew. I'm envious of those that have an overnight "awakening". That has not been my experience. It has rather been excruciating at times. But then I realized that is only so by my own making :-) Trudy Schrader October 20, 2022 at 7:20 PM This was so hard to process, because, honestly, humanity is NOT ok in the UNknown. It's one thing to say you are ok in not knowing, but totally different to just sit in it with no need for meaning or movement, just being. Ugh!
