You and Me

Overcome that, my love ..
I know that it is difficult
I know it looks scary
I know, you'd rather not,
If you do not have to..

Overcome that, love.
For two of us in the truth
for freedom in our hands
vulnerability of dewdrop
on curved mountain grass
under the first rays of the sun ..

Overcome that, my love ..
And then help me
that we go together through the gates of hell
and exit to the other side as
free beings
that nothing
and noone
in any of the worlds
can not apart..

The Prayer

God, I am begging you to forgive me
for the thoughts I will not think
for the things I will not premeditate
for the happenings I will not live

For all un dreamed dreams
for all excursions aside my journey
for the conscious that is roaming sometimes
for everything, for everything, dear God,
I beg you to forgive me.

But God,
I am addressing this prayer to you
not because of your forgiveness
but because of the wish
insatiable
and the blessing of Thee
that i think all that matters
to deliberate of every signal from haven
to experience every invocation of my destiny
to dream away all dreams of my soul
that i never turn aside of your own path
that the conscious be initiated into everything essential
to know myself within the whirlpools of Life
and conceive everything that is possible to know about oneself
for every step on that journey, I am begging you,
bless me, God.

A Prayer

O pour your Mercifulness on me, my Love
So that freely I can fly nearby you
So that love as the River thru my chest is runing
So alive, so powerful as a Woman

O pour your Mercifulness on this world, my Love
On this world fulfilled with the silent call
I am praying to you as a child with an innocent soul
Sincerely and burnt by the stars of yearning

Pour your Mercifulness as a golden water, my Love
Give me your hands, your heart, your whole body
Wash me with Your love and Consciousness
Give me your Thoughts, my Teacher

Connect me with Thyself into Eternity,
into One

Bring me closer to You,
Om
