the path of cinders and ash x

there is something deep within me that is thirsty

starving in fact

staring at the face of adversity for so long can leave us loving like that

needing something else

like water from the well

that you simply cannot satiate even if you had it all

 

for me this is Christ

it has always been Christ

I feel embarassed to say these things to you as if i may be judged but everything i do is for God

everything i commit to is for love

everything i want to be seen for and live up to is YOU

You is my God

 

what i mean by that is the all

the ever present

the one who will never leave you on this journey

the one who is as close to you as your jugular vein as they say-Rumi

the one who cannot walk away

 

i think abandon does that to you

it opens something from which you can never walk

away

it pulsates within your every being it ensures you live your life as rich and in rich i mean in presence

 

your wealth becomes another way

your space and time more important than anything else

the way you commit to another

the way you hold their hand

 

 

the way the door is always open

you can have it no other way

God set it ajar for you when you burned too close to the sun and now all you can do is pray

to never be taken away but to do what must be done

 

you become a servant

it isn’t about you any more

you change between ways you never thought possible

you replenish every one

and you wait

in circle

for completion

for life to remind you of your reason

the realest one

 

so it is always fresh and always fragile and always so deeply real so that all veils are removed and you are able to burn right down to the last cinder he gifted and live from that real glow xxxxx

 

all my love i know
