Misalignment Poems | Examples

Misfiring With Love

Death appeared in our relationship
The misappropriation of love was the cause

Someone I loved was drenched in solitude
We never really knew that both of us
Shoved each other away with misalignment!
Now we know that every action is important
We said things that was unnecessary 
And before we knew it, it was too late!
We still don’t have the full picture
You only came to me twice
And I guess that is the reason we paid a price of misfiring

Premium MemberLight of Christ

Both heaven and hell are within
Misalignment from love, our sin
Soul stains cleansed, if we be but still
Christ-flame glows in heart, go therein

As we surrender to His will
Voids within form begin to fill
We cognise the soundless thunder
As God does, love and light instil

Beyond mind, we behold wonder
Divine embrace, none asunder
All we do, is simply allow
Benign bliss burn, it’s touch tender

Bow then oh hermit, bow down low
Meld head with heart, soft and mellow
Clear light dawns and the path is clear
In stillness, scent of love follow

Premium MemberPractising the Presence

Mindfully observing thoughts rise and subside
For our attention they hanker
If we feed them not and in the vast void glide
Far distanced from noisy clanker 
We offer no anchor for rancour

Going in deeper, we attempt to find the cause
That drew in fear and desire
To discern the truth, we put thought on pause
Consigning ego to the pyre
Revealing heart, all afire

So, ego smoke and glowing heart, soul flame
Misalignment cause of conflict 
God search the aim so let us play this game
Head and heart meld, both with love inked
We roam the divine precinct 

So far so good, bliss suffused, we stand erect 
All nodes within form, in joy dance
Magnetic bliss currents burst forth unchecked
Joy in permanence happenchance
All because of head-heart balance

Premium MemberI Am Mystic

Within our heart, we feel I Am presence
Our hand goes there automatically 
Soul enlivened by light of innocence 
Joyous love pulse glowing magically

Star of David, our sacred heart symbol
Ancient wisdom; as above, so below 
Soundless bliss thunder, in heart does tingle
Making erst feral consciousness mellow

All that is manifest, our heart’s desire
More oft than not, led astray by ego
Free will determines, objects we aspire
Forming habit patterns, loathe to forgo

Back to basics, let’s talk of fall from grace
There is no sin; merely misalignment 
When fleeting illusions, we cease to chase
Our heart abides in tranquil contentment 

We’re not mind-body and when we know this
Vibrant cessation becomes our mainstay
Our feeble form is magnetised by bliss
God search our quest, as day and night we pray

God resides deep within cave of our heart
Can we sense not yet, music of the spheres
Negating all else, let’s add love to cart
Suffused with blissful rapture, that endears

Premium MemberHeart Contraction

Heart contraction, a clear signal
Misalignment from source
Time now to make complex simple
Erasing thought forms coarse

Abide with quietude
With stoic fortitude 
Vibrant in solitude 

Agitation
Heart contraction

Premium MemberSin

Going strictly by the scriptures 
We are told we have sinned long ago
Thus, fallen status is this feeble caricature

Maya indeed veils the truth but our heart is aglow
Head and heart aligned, we are free from strife
Once attachments recede, life flow is mellow

Sermons of preachers cut us like a knife
Designed to burden us with superstitious guilt
For our sin, Jesus gave up his life, Buddha his wife

It seems impossible that this is the house God has built
Anchoring our attention in spasms of contraction
Delusion that we have sinned making us wilt

Our innate nature is joyous bliss elation 
The only sin we see is with love misalignment 
Owing to indulgence in illusion causing stagnation

Let us unshackle consciousness from feral sediment
Reclaiming by free will our childlike innocence 
Flowing then through life in contentment 

God is truth! God is love! He asks for no penance
We are free! We are as He! Being of self-luminescence

Premium MemberWhy Do We Suffer

We all seek joy, yet man for most part weeps
Cause of our suffering, misalignment 
Fallen from grace, the rot has sunk in deep

Hearts love beckons but we take not the leap
Fearing to dissolve in the bliss current
We all seek joy, yet man for most part weeps

Divine embrace priceless, by mind made cheap
We strive and struggle, only to lament
Fallen from grace, the rot has sunk in deep

Bag of fears and desires, now a big heap
Burdened under the weight of attachment 
We all seek joy, yet man for most part weeps

If we but pause and into our heart peep
We may imbibe bliss without abatement 
Fallen from grace, the rot has sunk in deep

Simply by letting go, love within seeps
Revealing our soul, self-luminescent 
We all seek joy, yet man for most part weeps
Fallen from grace, the rot has sunk in deep

Premium MemberSelf Healing

Taking discord to be misalignment,
we feel no pain by ripples that arise,
ever blissful in quiet contentment,
ceasing judging, knowing we are not wise,
viewing shock as divine bestowed surprise.
Witness consciousness resting in the void,
vibrant bliss mist, pristine and unalloyed,
imbibes and releases each vibration,
empty within, thus always overjoyed,
nestled in bliss, in boundless elation.

Premium MemberWhat Will We Do

What will we do, when we run out of time
Knock of death on our door, the final chime
Which emotion flows through dying sinews
Knowing that the next breath may not renew
Regret or remorse or bliss throb sublime

Misalignment with love, our only crime
Devoid of love, we wallow in the grime
Dying now and yet mired in ego glue
What will we do?

Pretended emotions, which we did mime
All futile now, not even worth a dime
How we wish, we could begin life anew 
Too late to undo, the poison we spewed
When through Gods eyes we review, our lifetime
What will we do?

employee stealing
became known to employer
so he told him with loving feeling
take a salary raise and correct behaviour 

we are unbound spirit not ego caricature
so called sin merely misalignment 
in time all souls do mature
imbibing love current

Premium MemberInbuilt Bias

Inbuilt bias, embedded deep within
Roots in mind body association
Manifesting as our reflex response
Feral urge, we later look at askance
Mere misalignment needing correction

Head above, being ego thought station
Seeks for our identity, expansion
Dwelling in dark dungeons of decadence
Inbuilt bias

Here and now, to abide in elation
Head and heart align, in divine union
Love alone remains, our playful parlance 
Resonating with voice of our conscience 
Flame of truth, destroys by an explosion
Inbuilt bias

Premium MemberWatered Down Juice

Serenity; not past ferality
Non-judging eye view, geniality
Love misconstrued for lust, misalignment 
Yesteryears, instinct was our sentiment 
Presence smiles today in tranquility

Life flow, a flux of continuity 
Images of past, consigned to memory 
Here and now, free of ego sediment 
Serenity

Free spirit, immune from fatality
Over time, sheds delusionality 
In time reclaims, our native element 
Electrified thus by the joy current
Our ascension slow but a certainty
Serenity

Premium MemberThe Game

The one
as many
manifest
with free will
bestowed
to each aspect
of Itself
to fully feel
and experience
each life throb
in freedom
slowly recognising
singularity
in plurality
all energies entwined
merely vibrating
at different octaves
of love & light
albeit veiled
momentarily
causing anxiety
arising from 
misalignment 
in the effort
to expand
within the bubble
of imagined self
as the ego
resident in 
fleeting form

Seeing this play
the hermit
stretches & yawns
doing his bit
in as ordained 
as a part
of the divine game
being enacted
moment to moment
both within
and without 
then smiles
and moves on
within
in the void
of silence

Premium MemberPlayful Divine Parlance

There being in reality no limitation
Misalignment causation of distortion
Yet on an as is where is basis we do say
That ego attention oscillation yet holds sway

Recognition of truth merely indicates the horizon
Weary are our feet long laden with toxic poison
Light beyond at an unfathomable distance
We surrender therefore inner resistance 

Letting go of to get to being the path
Each pulse within a holy sabbath 
Awakening smoothly enabled
No ego agenda tabled

Unhurried stillness stance
Of our bubbling joyful innocence 
Marks not the time it may take for ascent
Having trustingly surrendered so simply present

There thus no one resident within to measure
Identity vaporised and thereby no fissure
Each throb within deemed as optimal
Beauteous vivifying hues inimitable

Premium MemberLove Non-Judgmental

Recognition non-judgmental accepts,
Respecting journey of each soul presence.
Arms open in embrace, love stands erect,
Gently steering other in playfulness,
Subtle fragrance of childlike innocence.
No evil in any is resident;
Aberrations we see, misalignment.
In timeless time all align as ordained,
With love sublime in joyful contentment,
Unifying with God, pure and unstained.
