Falling

[brokenwings]

Drowning in my fears
I stop thrashing, tread water
Long enough to hear
My Soul speak


‘Ssshhh ‘ - she soothes me as a babe in arms
'Do not be afraid of your sadness, little one

Fall from me, as a leaf from a tree
Do not cling to me just now

Drift down, down into your sadness’


I tremble, terrified.
Clinging, clinging on.


‘Fall, fall into your sadness, little leaf’
Soul whispers patiently

Again, again, then again
Until it becomes a mantra I can trust somehow.

I let go.


I

am

falling..



Into a wondrous discovery

My sadness is no hellish torment
My sadness, like air, supports me

Softly, so softly I descend
Then land

On a cushion of perceptible Grace


‘There is an end to it?’ I ask, amazed

I sigh, I rest, surrendered
Upon the earth of my Self

I have fallen to my Bliss

My Soul, she catches me
A mothers arms, waiting, loving me

Gathering me to Her again
As if I had never been alone

I adore this one too. I'm a fan, brokenwings.

Thankyou Abbara... the feeling is decidedly mutual!
