Suddenly an infinite wisdom……. One of my poems from June 2015.
Suddenly an infinite wilderness
opens up
beyond my earthly woes
concerns and heartbreaks
smaller concerns
of a broken self
are revealed as phantoms
that arose out of
a certain incompleteness
we are all still in formation
evolving
morphing
into new forms
new realisations
through this pain
that seems so personal
but is not
a new way
will be born
caught up in my pain
I forget your pain
for a time
the infinite wilderness
reminds me of how deep it is
how far back it reaches
it is for me to find
love out of this awakening
of a deep deep sorrow
far too vast to name
to set it free
dissolve it
in the open heart’s
wide ocean
Emerging From The Dark Night
