Don’t go back to sleep [Rumi]
The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you
Don’t go back to sleep!You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep!People are going back and forth
across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,The door is round and open
Don’t go back to sleep!― Rumi
I received this poem on a small piece of paper, in a storytelling group in Cluj. I feel this (“Don’t go back to sleep”) is the theme of this lifetime for me…
I am moving back and forth from ignorance towards the Light and back… back and forth…
Yet, I have faith now the trust that there is no other way then towards the Light, in the End :)).
I keep that piece of paper on my night stand since then, as a reminder… Thank you, Sandra. <3
it is a holy thing to love what death can touch
It is…
to love and not to hold
inside, outside
so inviting, so soft, so strong, so warm
and yet… illusive
holy Spirit
oh, you offered me so much
landing in my world, I was embraced by your vibration
you, soft-warm, peaceful, silent, loving creature
to hold! I want to hold you also in my arms
hold you close to my skin,
inside and outside, to hold you, caress you,
no limit shall I place onto you, you will keep the wings and fly…
giving, receiving… dancing the dance of life on Mother Earth.
to hold, to love, to be
on and with Mother Earth.
leaving… living… deathing…
on this land, in this heart, I am here
vigilant to your loving embrace
embarking on this… waiting without waiting.
we are here
healing, meanwhile.
at your service, in service
to you, to the world, to the higher self, to that which is and wants to be.
doomed I feel sometimes, doomed to be loved by you for-
ever
and at the same time, “not worthy” (my mind says many times)
to let go of this, I let go of this and I move on,
hearing your soft touch, singing to my heart, filling my being.
can you…? you ARE loving me!
and embracing me… coming back again, and again…
nothing sits between us… with us… he… he who offers me this, bliss…
touching me
over and over again, so deep inside
us, we are here, welcoming you,
coming for you,
healing… here… hoping you feel safe and loved back to join us in full body an spirit… free… divine… sacred angel.
