Each step,
let it fall away,
drifting onto the shadows of our former self,
our arms sweep into the darkest corners
and our liberation speaks.
Gentle forms,
create authentic waves of silence,
that wash away the heaviness,
baring wonders
that now lay,
upon the wings of our transition.
To sail amongst these seas,
our hearts opened and ready to receive.
Let it drop,
each beat,
slip into these streams, of consciousness,
that coat our vision with truth,
and blast our awareness with the reality of our words.
the veil lifted,
we finally see the true wealth of our existence.
I seek out the quietness corner, within my one room home. The place that I return to, to allow myself to slip away. To let my thoughts flow.
Silence is something I rarely experience, my home so full of life. Living in a space where we are always with one another.
I do crave the silence sometimes, but I value more the time I have with my girls, the fact that we share our thoughts so openly and get to see the way in which they continue to explore their imaginations. Everyday a new song, a new role to play, each day a gift.
I can not imagine living another way, even though I am well aware of how tough it can be.
I have to be more creative, in how I have my time, there is no door to shut the world out. No option to switch my life off. I am fully present in it!
But I do need to find ways in which I can really tap into my creative expression, to slow everything else down and focus on the words that bubble to the surface. Like I hold a valve within.
To release, to feel, to be made real. To hear my deepest thoughts and set them free!
Music helps so much, having the ability to put some headphones on, to help me break away from family life. To close my eyes and let the musical arrangement wash over me, as I feel it in every part of my body and allow myself to move, the thoughts to stir, and then it comes, the words, the rhyme, each and every time.
