6: 13:  The Blade

Excerpt 13 from Journal 6, ' Becoming My True Love '
   - From ' Journals To My True Love, Part 2'

The blade is sharp... The blade shines...
The blade teaches me, it goes to my core...
How it releases such knowing and yet
   embodies unknown...
The blade was forged over a long period of
   strife and is impermeable and cuts through all...
How I let it cut and divide me into segments of self
   and how it remains ready...
I become one with it; it is an extension of myself
   as I cut through forests of doubt and confusion...
How it cuts me as well in retraction...
To use it, I must let it use me...
I must accept the permanent changes it creates,
   how it shapes the world around me
I must take responsibility for it...
It is awareness of you, My Love...
It is wisdom and it cuts us both to be rebuilt...
How it divides our one knowing into the many...
We are already in the divide, so it is already
   our friend...
I understand you like I understand it...
I understand the blades power and yours, ours...
Become the blade, My Love, as I hold you in my hands...
Cut through my doubt and confusion...
Let the world see you gleam...
Let my words forge your heart into permanence...
Be my greatest tool...
With you at my side, we are truth and invincible...
That greatest tool is my heart...
And my heart is forged in you...
