A NEW LOVE
There is a new love of the heart
Waiting to be born.
It begins
Where the wells of sentiment run dry.
Forged in the fire of courage,
It seeks not to be safe,
But to explore.
It longs to know what is.
To see what is true beyond -
Your own being.
Reflected in the moment
The wisdom of the Cosmos
Is where the true answers lie.
But when the mirror cracks
When your self-image shatters
Know -
Know then -
Only then -
It is possible
For the deepest love within you to be born.
It is the fractures
Within your life
The ones we think
Will never heal.
It is at this moment
That you realize
Your entire life
Was simply a preparation
For this present event.
It is in this courageous knowing
Of this simple truth
That you choose to share
The gift
That only your heart
Can bring.
In this moment
The last bit of fear -
Is released.
And you and the world
Truly become what is - a new way of being.
It is -
This is -
The new love.
