LOVING THE SPLIT APART

My muscles ache from knowing you are beside me.
My bones have been sweetly crushed beneath your body weight.
My flesh has been severed by your omnipotent touch.
My heart almost ceases to pump life through my limbs when I am embracing you,
And my skin melts and sinks into yours
As you wash away my sense of solitude.

                      THEN

My soul rushes from me to become a part of yours
and we are each other and shall be....
Until only Great Mystery remains.
These experiences you have burnt into me
With the fire of your love that only my tears
of joy can put out.

Dearest Inner Masculine Nature of Me,

You applaud them.
You are precise in your movements with focus and clarity, but you are not blinded by your analytical thinking.

You see the beauty in things and your creativity moves you  forward.
You can be outgoing and spontaneous if need me but more importantly, you dare to put yourself out 'on the line.'

You are loyal to your close friends and even sympathetic to your
adversaries.  You are surefooted and grounded and you dedicate your life to the truth.  

You can withstand much suffering.  You can express
yourself with conviction.  The power you bring forth to the world is not calculating or cold, but empowering to others.

Your love of yourself makes others feel empowered in theirs. 

You are agile and strong.  You are a protector and not a possessor.  You protect many with your words and your actions and then you give them space to stand up and be powerfully counted for whom they discover themselves to be.

You are talented and you believe in yourself and your abilities
without being egotistical and cocky. You are not judgemental or
belittling, but basically accepting of others.  In your dedication and loving for others, you let people be who they are. 

There is no need in you to gossip or belittle. You are decisive and know that life is too short to try and please everyone.

Even if a day feels too long,
and you feel like you can't wait another one
and you're slowly giving up on everything,
love is gonna find you again
Love is gonna find you, you'd better be ready then.

Well you've been kneeling in the dark for far too long,
You've been waiting for that spark, but it hasn't come,
Well I'm calling to you please, get off the floor
Love is gonna find you again.
love is gonna find you, you'd better be ready then.

Tethered to a bird of sorrow, a voice that's buried in the hollow
you've given over to self deceiving, you're prostrate bowed but not believing
you've squandered more than you could borrow
you've bet your joys on all tomorrows, for the hope of some returning
while everything around you is burning.

Come on, we gotta get out, get out of this mess we've made
and still for all our talk, we're both so afraid.
And will we leave this up to chance, like we do with everything?
A good heart will find you again
A good heart will find you, just be ready then.

Tethered to a bird of sorrow, a voice that's buried in the hollow
you've given over to self deceiving, you're prostrate bowed but not believing
you've squandered more than you could borrow
you've bet your joys on all tomorrows, for the hope of some returning
while everything around you is burning
but I'm not leaving you here, I'm not leaving you here,
I'm not leaving

I'm not leaving you here, I'm not leaving
I'm not leaving you here

I'm hanging on,
oh I'm hanging on,
for what's gonna come
I'm hanging on, I'm hanging on
Hanging on, hanging on, hanging on, hanging on
hanging on,
with the faithful, with the faithful
I'm hanging on,
for what's gonna come,
for what's gonna come
I'm hanging on, I'm hanging on, with the faithful
