Why are we bound

As a child of God, we have His power
commingled with divine love, light and bliss 
but since we know not, in fear we cower,
sinking deeper into desire’s abyss,
though our heart tells us something is amiss.
Recognising we are not body-mind,
we then play our life role as God assigned
as spirit ensouling organic form,
transmitting vibrations loving and kind, 
with our eye mindful, touch tender and warm.
