THE NIGHTFIRE

THE NIGHTFIRE

(آتش)

A fragile beauty that for so long you tried to hide

For fear of falling into yet another web of lies

With nothing left to hold on to

What you didn’t know

Is that I had already seen

the myriad of colours within your soul

your unique configuration and callings

your raw humanness

imbued with a burning fire

your unspoken longings

and deepest desires

It made me love you even more

And then there are those days

where I don't even know who you are.

And yet,

we continue to strive

keeping the flame alive

for we now know that the safety net

which was once so full of holes is

piece by piece

being woven back together

you and I will rise

from the Nightfire

SOMEDAY WE WILL

SOMEDAY WE WILL

A shunted soul, fractured into two

injuncted by a higher hand

at the time of creation

Chosen for a mission taken on only by very few

a dispensation that leaves us wondering

why life’s trials can be so unfair

Standing at a moment of truth in ones life

knowing that what was behind me

does not necessarily tell me what lies ahead

Unable to see beyond life’s curve balls

the prize in the distance

seems like a cryptic chimera

With gentle whispers from spirit guides who remind us

that we must keep those visions alive in our minds eye

...even when the path seems insurmountable

We need to trust that the journey will take us where we need to be

because we just don’t know

what is waiting around the next corner

We have always felt in the depth of our being

that clandestine destinies will once again converge

and that the two souls will one day meet again
