Opening to the source of rhythm
      is tough when you're fighting the flow,
            struggling against the current of life.

Windows of love seem inviting
      but are often fraught with strife,
            when we are driven by selfish desire.

I want to open to universal desire,
      to become a vessel for transformation,
            and to love from the deep heart.

We gather in love to fulfill an eternal purpose
      and often get caught wrestling the shadows of yesterday,
            and worrying about the ghosts of tomorrow.

I have come to the edge of my most passionate quest,
      and this time there is no thought of return.

I must join this cursive, creative flow,
      no matter what wisdom I find...

I cannot go on without this spiritual connection.
      The tears I shed from this day forth
            are for the planet and humanity.

I refuse to shed tears of lament for you and I
      The tears that flow for us
            will only be tears of joy.

The reverence that rises between us,
      can no longer sustain shadows.

It can only spring from our
      moments of tenderness and love.
