I’m Holding You
listen to the breeze
don’t go back
to useless self-talk
it’s a treacherous minefield
listen
as it covers you
in cool, gentle caresses
in the most delicate
of kisses
and whispers softly
like a lover
secrets in your ear:
what are you afraid of?
we’re all friends
lovers and allies
there are
no enemies here
the sky and the clouds
the trees and the breeze
the flowers and the beasts
open the gates
to your heart
tell the guards
to go home
listen
listen deeply
and you’ll hear
our hearts beat
as one
and feel
the web of life
weaving in and out of you
into all
into me
let go
for God’s sake
let go!
I’m holding you
I’m holding you
I’m holding you
