Don't Seek God ... Find Yourself....

How far beyond alone

Lies the warm embrace

Of a soul echoed

Solitude?

Though an oasis

A weary traveller

Is not to 

Take up residence there

A respite

To gird one's spirit

And then venture on
Within

To then
Find & Serve
A Higher purpose
Humanity waits..

How many fruitless
Quests?
Seeking finite treasures
To soothe
Timeless longing

How many hearts
Lie dashed
Upon the rocks
Of anguish

Having been seen
As the Source
Rather than
The vessel

Called upon
To serve
With an omnipotence
Never intended of them

Solitude
A doorway

To an all consuming

Love and peace divine

The Alpha & the Omega

An all purpose salve 

For any & all 

Perceived short-coming 

A relationship 

So deeply intimate

It exists between 

Breaths

It beats a heart

While attending 

Sorrows & sadness

Glorious multi-tasking

Diffuses rage

While clarifying

Forgiveness

Was never required

The love of it

Can be shared endlessly

And though it is never absent

It cannot be kept

Renounce then
False Gods
Errant
Power plays

Open & ask
 Discover & become upheld
 Recipient & messenger
Of an everlasting Love
