Merging
into my present
past memories
regretful actions
only I can remember
thoughts of oblivion
cloud my heavy head
the rain
keeps pouring
pouring pouring down
the witch
is drowning and can't escape
she promises
for change and grow
so many lives have passed
dust
is forming pyramids
mummies
stalk unpaved streets
u turns dead ends barricades
where is
the god of happiness
enlightenment
for all the world
I'm trying, Lord I'm trying
I'm
going over
the edge
nothing to catch me
when I fall
a promise
is needed - even soft hopes
tell me
there's a heaven
and no hell
loving kindness
meditations, mystic chants
say them
give me a break
forgive and let go
heal the scars
fix the broken pieces
press enter -- no return
this life is more than enough
set me free

I love writing--It's my joy, my therapy--my confession. I'm a performer, dancer, yoga and meditation instructor, write a poetry column for Rafu Shimpo. Growth and love of life is a key to my happiness.
