When you unravel in the darkness, you learn how deep the silence of the world sinks
When you unravel in the darkness, you learn how deep the silence of the world sinks,
not even those for whom you would bleed will carve your name into their silence,
they will scroll through dreams, sleep under indifferent skies, smile like shadows,
while you try to breathe through the pain wrapping your soul like a veil.
For when

Unraveling the Knot of Knowledge
I was certain.
I was sure.
I knew what I knew—
until I didn’t.
A thread pulled,
a question I never meant to ask,
a whisper splitting at the seams.
The more I learn,
the less I know.
The less I know,
the more I understand.
I trace the edges of truth,
only to find them fraying.
I tighten the knot.
I loosen the knot.
I untangle it. I make

Unravel Us Right Infront of the Mirror
Tell me,
what do you see in me?
Is it a reflection, a spark
a piece of yourself
you’ve yet to touch?
Are you safe here,
wrapped in the rhythm of my arms?
Your heart races,
its drumbeat a song only I can hear.
Don’t be afraid.
This is where we begin,
a chapter unwritten,
a story that whispers us.
Let’s surrender to the heavenly.
Open your soul,
let it

Unravel
Choke me, like the words
I've wanted to say out loud.
Dig your nails into my flesh
Like the pain that has been inflicted on me.
Let your claws leave scars on my chest,
And your fangs on my neck
As the proof of my suffering.
Rip the skin off of my body
And look at how deep these scars run.

Unravel To Exhale
We place a lot of pressure squarely on our shoulders
Raising the bar on repeat feels like carrying boulders
Stakes set stubbornly high but can lower to find a clue
By broadening out our view to see the strain is undue
Realize the rigor we apply isn't required in every situation
Unwinding tension that was a figment

“Ramana queried, ‘who am I’ ~
If we know not, our life’s a lie”
~ quote by poet
Of all mysteries in the universe vast,
the one of highest relevance in our life role,
is to find out who we are, before we breathe our last.
All scriptures without exception affirm we are a soul
but how may we believe, unless we

Ways Which We Will Unravel
Ways Which We Will Unravel
Are some ways which we will unravel;
When in House hit head with a gavel;
Slander;
Gerrymander;
Then leave and on a long trip travel.

Enough Tough Stuff That Is Rough
Each one of us did have enough,
Things that became tough stuff;
Hesitated,
Then devastated;
A poor golf game ending in rough.

Unravel
Be brave and bold
When world turns cold
Live that fond flair
As pain grips air
Dare to be still
In unsure feel
See how you see
What yet may be
Turn to the light
To sense wise sight
Look deeper now
To soul's endow
Sense in strange change
A vibrant range
Do all you can
To understand
The way looks strange
In painful change
Look to your core
For grace galore
All that

The Truth Will Unravel
An unarmed soldier seeks justice
where the wolves prowl awaiting their prey
armed with faith silver shining chalice glowing light
Striking blows the deceiving fool flash reveals
Behind one mask lies a corrupt soul
I see the real picture frowns
But in front of the true judge Almighty
Our Creator
he will then face his accused head on
Only

The Quest To Unravel Time
The doors of time open
Swallow perspective down a light tunnel
We reach with full breasted might
To shadow what came before
Riding the backs of endless generations
Their hands woven in the soil
Featureless faces lifting atom clocks
Above the heads where centuries wash
I am dull plated, unresisting
I only exist where leaves breathe
Where crested waves lap their rhythms
And sunlight spins the

Unravel Me
Tears stream like water, rain in the night
A heart that still hungers for all to be right
Stoned by a circle, mocked while on stage
Emotions grow heavy from pain into rage
Scabs that were healing I picked them apart
All to uncover, I had to restart.
Purity, The essence of the soul
Security, Only in your arms
For the ship is

Unravel Webs I Have Spun
We all can make mistakes
When we don’t know what to do
Then we need to hit the brakes
Before we drive right through
Don’t feel bad you’ve blundered
I have even smashed a cup
I have yelled so loud I have thundered
But there’s still time to fix things up
If I could take back things I have said
Just to shred them
