Ashram

Ashram, Shalah,

 Temple,

Cave

Sanctuary

My soul

In the walls of

love

Close your doors

Around me

As I venture

Into the depths

Of me,

The cave

I have not yet been

In that space

To find

Something

No one else

Can

darkness

Creeps up

And with it

My mind

That part of me

I have been running

And running

From

The beginning of

Time.

I stop and

Instead

Of run

Look back

And see

Ego

A friendly

Face

The one I have

Only known

Why are you here?

I thought I was

Running

From fear?

What do you mean?

I am you…

What else would you be

Looking for?

Fear I am not

But the mind

A mask

I will

Not be taken

By

This lie

I close

My eyes

And in that space

Find the light

It is inside

And know

There is nothing

To fear

But the unknown

Discovered

I am both.

The light and dark

Who would have known

Is but the

Polar parts

Of me

When I surrender

My fear

Ego created

So I run

I face it

And see

All of me.

Ashram,

Shalah,

Temple

Cave

You’ve

Held

Me

In your arms

So I could let

Go

And feel

All the fear

Ego

Had me running

From

In that cave of

Me

I have found

The

Power

To see

I am light

And darkness

Together we

One toroidal

Slide

Cycling

Within its self

To Realize

And know

Oneness

Existence of Source

Power

And light

Is

But because of

Darkness.

Let’s dance in this

Cave

Make

Romance

With the idea

Of death

And fear

Without

Which

We could

Not know our light

And so

We created

This cosmic

Dance

Called Life.
