Love Is Seeing Again
I set you free, and I send you out to the world.
Please discover your color again. Remember what it feels like?
It feels to be free.
I set you high above the tops of trees, beyond the chimneys of this lower realm, with wings that can keep you up without the need to flap.
When you spread your wings, you see your world through all your moments of awe.
and the colors and fabrics in your wings.
If you feel that you are lost, searching, you will discover a bag of treasures hidden in your soul. I secretly placed in there for such a time. You are not lost, you are profound.
In that satchel you will find all the nourishing and delightful feelings you forgot about.
When tired, you can feast on the excitement of discovering the freedom of your wings, that now beat with certainty and you soar high again.
When you are riding fast, a small bird will appear out of the special bag, whispering about the joy in the details that you might have missed.
If hunger attacks you, remember: it is only your mind. For the special bag of gems will remind you that it is me within you, at all speeds of flight.
If you pause to look and catch your breath, i’ll be there.
I’m in your inhale and exhale and in the water that wets. Pouring down with the rain, and rising through the trees. i’ll meet you there, beyond.
