I’m lost,
Or so I think.
But I’m not looking to get saved.
At least not the way you mean.
There would have to be substance,
And you don’t seem to offer that.
Lost in this world.
I’m tired of words,
And not just yours.
Jesus,
My dear Jesus,
I need help.
Sometimes I can’t see beyond the walls of the Church.
Like prison walls,
I’m told what to think,
And what not to think.
Church, prison,
Prison, Church.
I’m looking for that truth,
That makes me free.
It isn’t in the building.
I spent twenty years looking.
It isn’t allowed in.
It’s somewhere outside the walls,
With Jesus.
And now I’m out here.
Tired of words.
Tired of all the noise.
Just so desperately seeking truth.
Not your version…..
The real truth.
The one I find
only in
silence……….
J
WORLDLY MIND,
THIS MIND OF THOUGHT,
BASED ON JUST WHAT?????
YOU SEE,
YOU AND ME
WE BOUGHT A THOUGHT
BEING SOLD BY THE BRASH AND BOLD
OUR SOULS TO HOLD
THOUGHTS,
SO VERY COLD…….
ANOTHER MIND,
SO DEEP I FIND
ON THAT SOFT VELVET SHELF
OF SILENCE.
FORGET GUNS
AND GOVERNMENTS
AND YOUR SWEET VERSION OF JUSTICE…..
IT’S OK
LET IT ALL FLOAT AWAY
FIND THE TRUTH
OF THE ETERNAL SILENT MIND
AND STAY
QUIETER
QUIETER
SO VERY STILL
BE
SO VERY STILL
TRUTH AND POWER,
HIDDEN IN SO GENTLE
A SETTING.

LOVE,
GENTLE LOVE
LOVE
IS NOT
PRIDE IN OWNERSHIP
LOVE
THE SIGHT
IN THE MIDST
OF AWARENESS
LOVE IS NOT
A PRISON
LOVE
THE BEAUTY
OF THE ONE
LOVE
IS NOT
A LIST OF DEMANDS
LOVE
IS GOD
WITH US,
GOD IN US
LOVE
IS NOT
MANIPULATION
AND CONTROL
LOVE IS
SEEING
SO FAR BEYOND
YOUR BULLSHIT
THAT I SEE
YOU
LOVE AGAIN
J
JUST LIKE BAD MAGNETS,
THIS WORLD OF THINKING AND REASON
AND
THE ETERNAL SILENCE WITHIN.
NO RESOLVE
ONE IS REAL
JUST ONE IS TRUTH
SILENCE
JUST HANGING OVER EVERYTHING
WITH A SECRET SMILE
J
LOVE
ON A WARM DAY
MELTING
RUNNING DOWN
FILLING IN ALL THE CRACKS
JUST SEE HOW THEY CRACK WITHOUT LOVE
ANYWAYS
MELTING DOWN
NOW I FEEL JUST A LITTLE BETTER
LOVE IS SO THAT WAY
LOVE
LIKE FROSTING
