divinity now


I started with the idea that I could help you
That I could make you feel better
That I could help make you whole
Maybe this time my actions would reciprocate
And I would finally have someone help me feel better and whole
The whole process keeps me distracted
Keeps me from feeling like I’m falling apart

Sometimes I have a peaceful relationship with myself and can live in some semblance of harmony
Maybe when I am weaker and let myself make its choices
Then I feel disconnected
And that I deserve punishment and ridicule
I hate how welcome pain has to be in order for me to be okay
But I still wait for that pain
So I can be free
Discipline = freedom

How can I start to explain the blame in me
The blame
For it is my fault I can’t feel loved by the divine
Not his
Its mine
I am the twisted visage meant to be unwarped
For if I was true, then reflected in me
Would warmth show
Divinity
Wholeness and acceptance
Whats left for me to hold
Is a  tattering soul.
I am the abused child blaming himself for the sins of his abusers.
If only I wasn’t me,
Then it wouldn’t hurt like it does.

I don’t know what to do when I don’t have a reason to disdain myself.

The star blazing above
Lighting up the hope around us
A temporary stop
Floods the sky with a blanket
Of darkness
Only to find
Again
That the hope never left us
It was temporarily
Blocked from our view
Like a toddler left alone in the crib
The world hasn’t ended
You’ll feel the love you love again
Oh sun around us
You’re love has never left us
Just a temporary dark cloud above us
Waiting for its moment to move on
To show you never left us.
Again
Your warmth kisses our skin
A reminder of your persistence and presence
I love you jesus


If death brings with it the joy of heaven
Then living now hardly matters
Because salvation is a locked in guarantee
That nothing can stop us from our security
This life is but a vapor
Heaven gets sweet and sweeter
This world is not my home.
I have no attachments here.
Just a better excuse to push everyone away

Decent Into Darkness

  As far as reality goes, I've been farther. If you could see all and know all for an instant the barriers of your mind would collapse in on you.  Darkness seems an incompatible mistress and yet for me is the fog from which I emerged found. Having found what I needed, yet still the pull of the dark, a slender grip, found hold around my waist. I clawed with desperate hands at the fabric of the reality around me, hoping I would find some purchase. Alas, my feeble attempt held me aloft a floating miasma of disconcerting remembrance. The pull too strong, I let go. But unlike before I was intact in my integrity.  I, my whole being, plunged towards the dark grips pull.  But this time I faced it gritting my teeth with eyes narrowed in determination. “I will not be undone again.” A challenge for the faceless nameless abyss to master. Let’s just say I went down swinging at nothing. I felt the evil sneer of some hidden forsaken deity claiming me as another option of unredempti...

Isolating Reality

Fear holds me back from seeing what I can become. I live with the constant pressure that what I do will fall flat to the dissapointment of some faceless authority. I can't stop myself from trying to pretend that I don't care about my own failure. I make the smaller choices that are easier, So that I don't have to look so obviously wrong when I make the harder choice and fail. I actually can't even go to that place in my mind where I have to make hard choices. I satisfy my itch to need to change, by resolving the problems I find easier to access. Fixing other people. Changing how I act, so other people will be content. I act as if I hold the world of the people around me together. It's exhausting. But its more welcoming then facing the place in me where I deepest find my fear untouched. I realize that I don't believe I am worth my own actions. The only way that makes sense for How and Why I do things, Is in the satisfied faces of people around me. ...

Why you don’t need God

Life with all of its problems presents enough circumstances that all of our efforts are barely enough to satisfy them.  The problem isn’t you. It’s me.  You’re enough for everything you need. You can handle it.  The pillars of your being built on your foundation are meant to shoulder reality. Outside of that how can you expect to carry any more. You really shouldn’t be expected to carry more than the burden of your life. Because in all reality, you are enough for your life. What if the problem isn’t you. What if the problem is reality. What if the tax of reality underlying your best efforts continually ends in a debt that draws more than you can give. That reality would be too much to bear.  It would be too much for us all. Would you be lying to say otherwise? Or could your deception be part of the cost of reality? Why are you paying for deception? Do you need to construct more pillars to account for the tilting of the polarity that reality brings? How much does that...
