Can You See Me?
Because I can See You…
I am Here, on this Path.
Here, let Me sit in the Light
So You can See Me better.
There, can you See Me now
Being in this Illumination?
Can You Hear Me?
Because I can Hear You…
And I was told,
That when You Speak, it will be in a manner
That only My Heart can Hear…
And I Hear, Your Voice
That whispers softly in the
Ambrosial air of morning,
And every morning
I awaken in You, and as,
The Eternal Breath of Wonder
And the ecstasy of One Life.
I Am all there is
When I let You See Me shining…
Can You See Me?
Can You Hear Me?
You are speaking, as I move My mouth
And I can’t distinguish Your words from Mine…
It is Heaven
You told Me I could trust You,
That in the bosom of my Being is the Light
You give Me,
And though I may see it only as a speck,
If I choose to use it to vanish the shadows
Of fear and ignorance and Self-denial…
Then I run, with the Torch it has become
Leaving sparks of Light behind…
For I have trusted that the fire You lit
Would not consume Me
Only my dress,
Only the costume I wore
To hide my Self from
Your Brilliance.
If time cannot bewitch Me
Nor distance tempt My gaze…
Then wrap your Heart around Mine
And let us dance to the celestial strings
Of the Music, of the Silence
And let us be speechless…
