Lady of the Dawn speaks

Press play before reading. Salute.

Are fragments of your souls just components of your own unconscious ideas linked to many layers of heaven and hell


Are you too metaphorical to ever really understand


But still just another human living within and under its dark magical spell


Slowly waiting for the spiritual understanding as it returns to just you


To really see whatever you'll see in the afterlife 


When you watch your life back on that big silver TV


As you pray to our Lord 


The Great Almighty hoping he'll set you free


Is this place where you now visit and read from


But a brief refuge carefully hidden in the slow-moving storms of time


A respite in the face what you know needs to be done


A secret well-beaten shack 


Carefully concealed along the dark highways of deep spiritual fraternities


As we now together  connect mentally 


And merge slowly into a swirling eternity


From twisted emotional journeys unknown


To now friends and no longer strangers 


But just beloved people in distant foreign time zones


From deep lessons to be learned


To dark bridges which must be crossed and burnt


Are our eventual destinations and prophesied tasks greater than we can ever possibly know


To others, life is but a flicker and seems so easy


By to those blessed like us

Me and you


Is it but a strange dichotomy between peace and sorrow


Sometimes filled with anger and pain


Regardless of where we go tomorrow 


But no matter

For in the end


If we are lucky and truly blessed


We are all wrapped in white shawls of grace and deep spiritual peace


For if all our misdemeanours we eventually fully confess


We might hear the Almighty's beautiful voice speak these words personally again


It's an old song that some may forget


But I have the lyrics if you want to read on


Read on for they are free and you don't owe me anything 

Such as royalty fees or any other debts



Take me as a symbol of your need for release


Replace your hatred instead with love


Where there is an injury


Look above


Where there is doubt


Have faith and don't give up


If despair appears

Remember hope


When darkness glides in


Let light absolve its sin


Where life becomes unhappy


Smile and always try to remember these words


To sing


We are all tributaries leading back to the Holy River


Deep channels of our own divine peace


Remember to help pardon your own soul


Before you enter its beautiful gardens


For with inner forgiveness


We are reborn to eternal life


Free from all the burdens of our earthly emotional sharp knife


For I am beyond


What your occupation entails


I just want to trace what your heartbeats regale


Your age is a pale horse


I never what to see


I just want to hear of your hopes and dreams


Will you risk all for love and spiritual glory


To live an extraordinary life


Will you sit with me


In the sunlight's shadows


And reflect on life and try to smile again


Past all the doubts

And disturbing grey rain


Do you still seek to sip a drop of Loves glorious champagne


Will you dance with me in feverish ecstasy as happiness revisits your inner domains


Will you be a smiling passenger on one of my fast-moving trains


Free and with no limitations


Ready for pleasure and redemption beyond refrain


Will you soar with me

like two golden eagles


Above fast gossips

Whispering campaigns


What you answer

Doesn't matter to me


All your answers are simply for you


Can you say no to another to be true to your soul


Can you rise above false accusations


And still, keep your control


Can you cherish your own inner beauty


Beyond prying unfriendly eyes


And rise internally like an angel when hope seems to die


Can you parade with failure like long lost lovers


And salute the scarred silvery moon


As its bands play a dark ominous bleak tune


Your social status

I care of not


Only can you still rise

And embrace your lot


After the long nights of despair and pain


Will you rise to challenge this life again


Will you stand like a sentry lost in despairs inferno flames


Or will you ask me to help extinguish its name


I don't care for all your academic labels


I just wanted to know if you're willing and able


Or if you just needed another seat at your table


The company you keep in those dark days of empty lonely moments


Are like great friends who speak like trendy holy old poets


Are we today 


Simply an extension of that which resides within?


A projection from the source.


Will our soul eventually forget us


This vessel it now currently lives within, say in a thousand years


Or will it still remember this version of us 


Before we return to heaven after the last time we turn to dust?


 A rather deep thought.

Good night!
