You, my love, are like that bird who sees
a reflection of sky and trees,
so real, so enticing, you fly
straight toward the glass.
As you soar
you anticipate the beauty
of that azure freedom
the lushness of those green leaves.
When suddenly you smash
hard into the solidity,
your whole world
disappearing into pain.
Your wings fold
as you plummet to the earth,
confused and stunned,
empty and lost.
You ponder what went wrong
and your answer comes in a whisper:
“Only the One True Love inside
deserves such focus,
such cherished embrace.
All else is but a mirage
meant to keep you seeking
out there in the world.”
You say to yourself,
“This Path is my purpose—
the rest but an illusion
reflected in a window.”
Then you soar high,
free from hurt and angst,
holding tight
only to the Lover within.
♥️
Thank you, dear music maker!

I’m always struck by the perfection of the images you find in our world that can so graphically describe our journey through it! Thank you so much for sharing these with us.
Brilliant imagery, L – reminding how subtle one’s placement of attention can shift from inside to outside. A gentle reminder – stationing inside from outside is choosing one over another. The Inner M encompasses both, as well as neither. When I make that choice, choosing ‘both~niether’ is blessed by that, by thou. Hoping to find your form in 18 to 20 days – bil
