Poetry
by Yogi ChristopherUntitled #1
In my heart, secretly
Like an ugly sickness stains
I am so ashamed
This blight long I’ve known
A hidden flaw grown so deep
The light was gone
Living in darkness
Familiarity dawns
Mirror brightly lit
The distance between
Is nothing compared to fear
Of getting too close
You, my love, guide me
Spilling out of me, ablaze
Uncontrollably
Present with right now
And remembering my roots
Knowing all is well
So please be welcome
For life has always been yours
To give or take
as it pleases you...
Clear Seeing
The mirror does not communicate.
It reflects.
Only light shines into the darkness.

heart song free of thought
unconditional love shines
with natural trust
There’s Time To Forgive
grief becoming bliss
no self recrimination
there’s time to forgive
burdens all the same
afraid to let go of it
unsure of the now
true gentility
bravery, not majesty
a fearless presence
drunk on media
our escape going too far
presence forgotten
grief becoming bliss
no self recrimination
there’s time to forgive

come on, play with me
be like a child with words
we will laugh with awe
