As always it makes terrifyingly perfect sense in the way that only the artistic musings of a Muse can.
Sometimes we have to pour ourselves into the work of the soul to push ourselves along the path of learning what it means to be saved.
Jesus did the hard part of dying and coming back to life...all we do is spent trying to learn to love...and part of that is devoting ourselves to plumbing the depths of our seemingly endless souls to find who we are and what we can do...just to stand and face our Love...and realize the work we've done is a paltry reflection of that face...
Beauty, color, creed and sex will have no real meaning looking into the face of Divine Love...everything will be reconciled into the perfectly unutterable clarity that would terrify us to know now.
Peace and hope eternal.

Feeding on a Burning Soul
I'm looking across this ocean
and feeling the distance
of being ripped apart
by the lies of trepidation
and temptation of pride
with the lie of self.
It's having the scales of my eyes
ripped off
and feeling the shame
of a thousand lies of wasted breaths.
Every moment apart
is a moment I'm dying,
not knowing how to live
forgetting how Your heart beats
and longing to know
just to know
I'm never forgotten.
and feeling the distance

Every moment apart

just to know
I'm never forgotten.
Quote of the Day
“Just as in earthly life lovers long for the moment when they are able to breathe forth their love for each other, to let their souls blend in a soft whisper, so the mystic longs for the moment when in prayer he can, as it were, creep into God.”
-Soren Kierkegaard
