The non Christian nature of my poems Not rooted in love and charity But the turmoil of a soul well oiled I writhe in confusion Is this a calling? Am I meant to put pen to paper And write out the storm The crackle of firelight keeps me warm But it pushes others away Because even the best As separate can’t stay Only in the groundswell In the depths of our origin Are we one Beyond the surface reality Of seeming appearances We share that underlying wellness That defines all time Sets a clock ticking And a person to mime As though ocean days were all they had In forests and grey hairs We’re getting older And I wish someone would’ve told her That it was all okay Oh, leave it up to me! I turn the key And set you free
