I walk into a dark space,
Bringing nothing but the breath leaking from my face.
and this inferno beating fire through my chest.
I’m still here, I’m doing my best.
I see myself,
in the map of stars riddled over my surface.
Scaring between me, myself, and the sun beating down on me.
A lovers’ quarrel traveling into this reality.
Connect the dots in freckles until they’re constellations,
the stars I’m carrying vary to suit me perfectly.
Coat of arms, a family tree
finally, life has been preparing me.
Moment to moment projecting my being forward.
Ever reaching and simultaneously connecting and combusting,
thrusting toward the present moment in time.
Written in the stars, twinkling brightly,
they call to me until each holds special meaning.
Dancing playfully across the sky coaxing me closer to the unseen.
Life is so funny.
I walk on the waters of my minds.
Taking inventory of the stories unwinding,
I’m finding it hard to see the bigger picture
painting out in front of me.
Too caught up in the curiosity guiding me.
Gliding, colliding, resisting, wrestling inside of my body.
Makes me wonder what else I carry more quietly.
Observing. Observing. Watching until I see nothing.
It’s a thing of beauty, this power cell.
This engine, this battery, this filtration system.
Gifts I’ve been so freely given.
To balance the hell I’ve lived in.
This imagery. It’ll free me.
It’s gonna be freeing to see my wildest dreams become my reality.
The laboratory where I can imagine anything.
So, show me everything I’m meant to see.
I see a heart hiding raggedy and in need
Inside of me, inside of me.
Lips full of silence while the skin’s full of signs and systems.
Every piece is a symptom of the human condition,
a credible witness in this lifelines’ depiction.
It’s a developing fiction twisting.
The sea inside of me, given away by eyes that can only speak honestly,
portals revealing all kinds of growing pains, cycles, and patterns it’s been in.
Nothing about the heart in front of me is anatomic.
It must be symbolic so,
make me simpatico.
Lead me with synchronicity,
release me to see the beauty.
Let me rest in the wonder, please.
I walk over the dark surface of what has been, thinking; what’s done is done.
Looking at the state of this reflection has me rolling up my sleeves and stretching,
this is gonna be fun.
Show me anything I can’t know.
what does this beautiful being require to become One?
The uneven beating inside of me has something wrestling to its feet.
Insecurity perceived. Poor memories. Past situations.
Each unwittingly clogging the arteries of who I might be.
A fear, a different reality, haunting and howling back at me.
A phantom, full of unfulfilled dreams and commitments.
I can’t put my finger on it, which is exacerbating things.
I take a deep breath and repeat until I feel the beating slowing.
I get through the weeds leading to the master key, keep breathing deep.
I imagine unlocking the heart and opening its door.
dark energy flooding out all around me,
being released to the floor surrounding me.
The reverse twister of debris rising up, up, and away from me,
carrying every negative thing to be cleaned outside of me.
I’m left shining, only to see the broken heart resting at my feet.
Reflecting golden light to shine through its ragged surface,
it starts floating toward the ceiling.
The cracks and torn pieces full of brightness,
releasing the beauty to project through its surroundings.
Light of the sun disinfecting and regrowing the torn tissue.
A peek through the cracks revealed a seed burrowing into the soil inside.
Its roots filled the empty space pushing it upward to become a breathtaking tree.
Inside of me, inside of me. A whole forest unfolding.
The vision is a wondrous thing.
Each leaf budding, coming to life
is a tiny piece of the dream unfurling through me.
living free, living bold, aiming for the gold.
Being the best I can be for the benefit of everything.
I am growing. I am healing.
I am conditioning to continue my mission.
To follow the truth no matter what the cost,
In the end, its lessons are priceless to me.
Thank you for this morning’s meditation.
