Familiarity

familiar in him I see a soul
engulfing every part of me
familiar in him I see a fact
of reaching out to flee

familiar is this familiarity
of us so familiar w/ each other
familiar w/each other
familiar oh so familiar
is this a lie? please tell me!

familiar I see a soul
engulfing his significant other
familiar in him I see a fact.. an act
of reaching out to flee...

familiar yet ..not
so ironic...nothing other
familiar..so very familiar
that when I look into his eyes
I loose the sense of comparing familiarity!

"In whirling everything turns and moves and whirls...

Until you find an unmoving center within yourself...

The Essence of whirling ...is no movement."

-Osho

why so silent my love?

don’t go silent, my love
I can see that your unable to hide it
silence must be heard
love manifests that silence
silence of speech

oh what a wild thing to say
don’t be silent oh my love
when you talk of your love
fascinating is the vibrancy in your words
power dwells within them..
Encountered expressions
desire of thought...

Don’t go silent oh love...
even though I know this silence tells a tale
a tale of love... a tale of us

oh what a wild thing to say
don’t be silent oh my love...
build on to your words...
you’re not compressing the feeling
but in reality externalizing it
mortal is not this love... Oh dear
so don’t be silent now

because immortal is your soul
that seeks for the immortality of this very thing called love
don’t be silent my love...
But in turn teach me...
Evoke in me the thought and consideration of expression
coz often self is accused of a dun heart
oh what will I do with a dun heart ...

oh what a wild thing to say
don’t be silent my love
engulf me within u
I stand here with surrendered eyes
lit with care
craving for caress..

Don’t be silent oh my love
coz often self is accused to nature
of self nurture
it is the design in self my love
intentions don’t influence
evil hath not reside within me

resides what my love?
The answer you know... I believe
then why is this heart. My heart accused of evil
evil hath not evil to me my love
god hath not good
god is to be the one who hath made good and bad my love
then why is self accused of this belief

likewise love is god..
Love is god... my love!
may not a soul accuse god
may not a soul accuse love
love breaths in me
love breaths in u
it is what makes me
it is what makes u
if self is accused
god is accused!

then why are you silent my love?
Then why are you so silent?
why is self still accused of evil?

I only practice love
nor am I a destructing soul
neither am I a troublesome human
I live amongst people who know me to be foreign
my love hath be as pure as it can be of a native then why is self accused of evil?

self practices love ..
Self practices humbleness
self practices smiles…

Why r u silent my love?

Hue

Your love is the most obvious manifestation
And u r right
Its like two olors are blending into one hue
This hue of… Serenity
Its often seems to me that I am painting
Or I am actually within a painting
Where things and objects and colors have feelings
We hide and veil our selves behind these shades
Not destroying the painting
But beautifying it even more
You know ...
People assume and state that nature is perfect
I disagree
Design is perfect
And by design I am referring to the ultimate energy
But nature is the artwork of design
And this work of art is not perfect
And therefore it is beautiful
And I want u to know that... In this life may you never ever ponder upon the thought of how u thought it wasn’t "perfect"
I am not perfect and neither are you
And therefore our relationship...as I said earlier is merely a hue
Nothing less and nothing more
Yet in only that one phrase ...
I have expressed a feeling that is even beyond my own comprehension

Prana

Flow on to me
Flow in to me
For I crave and long
For only some warmth

Pour on to me
Pour from within me
For I seek to give
Not just take

Live for me
Live within me
For I ask only ask
For some Life.
