Just One

I want justice.
I want the weak to be free.
I want justice.
I want the wrongs to be seen.
I want justice.
I want the world to decree
no more hate, no more war
only peace and serenity.

But I am just one, my voice seldom heard,
a pawn in life's game, my passion, my word.

I long for peace.
I long for my heart to smile.
I long for peace.
I long for heaven to linger, a while.
I long for peace.
I long for the world to reconcile
the differances with radical acceptance
to save our human heart, so fragile.

But I am just one, my voice seldom heard,
a pawn in life's game, my passion, my word.

Today I hope
for the weak to find strength.
Today I hope
for the wrongs to find truth.
Today I hope
for the world to find faith,
the last spark of sanity,
lost within fear's aftermath.

But I am just one, my voice seldom heard,
a pawn in life's game, my passion, my word.

I wait for love,
for the hatred of the world to mend.
I wait for love,
for the choice that God would lend.
I wait for love,
for the dark nightmare of the soul to end,
no more fear, no more night,
for beauty's source to transcend.

But I am just one, my voice seldom heard,
a pawn in life's game, my passion, my word.

I am a child of grace.
I speak God's heart with human tongue.
I am a child of grace.
I search for the forgotten song, unsung.
I am a child of grace,
for I am worthy to stand among,
the giants and master's of love,
to always remain forever young.

But I am just one, my voice seldom heard,
a pawn in life's game, my passion, my word.

The Third Eye

Holding on... to one

Breathing all the ether...

Taking in the time

Focus on the now...

holding on... to one

I AM and I feel...

so cold and alone...

Just me, in the space

Just free, and awake

Letting go...

Letting flow...

My head begins to burn...

an eye opens to the world,

unseen...

and now all is here

a universe held in a moment...

eternity found in my mind

my third eye is open,

the flower has blossomed

and God is talking to me...

Listen.

How to Deal

When facing your fears...

and life seems to fall away...

remember who you are...

and you'll know what to say...

When you've lost your way...

and only strangeness surrounds you...

remember to listen...

to your own heart beating...

When your fists are clenched...

and your teeth are gnashing...

remember to breath...

and to drop your shoulders...

When your heart breaks...

and all grief comes pouring...

forget all you know...

and just let it go...

Lucid Dream

Upon the horizon,

I see a flame.

Deep with in my heart,

a spark is struck.

Holy and untamed,

the rushing wind is in me.

Far above,

my thoughts will linger.

To take in the fire,

to live by my heart's desire.

For all things turn,

and all days end.

But some things shine,

the heart, the soul, the mind.

Summertime (my version)

Summertime,
when the days are lazy
june bugs skippin'
across an amber sky

Oh, your stomach's full
and you've had a'plenty of wine
So rest, my baby, you'll be fine

One of these mornings
You're gonna rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
and you'll take to the sky

And on that morning
there's a'nothing can harm you
so hush, my baby, you're alright

........................
original version, by G. Gershwin

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by
