Two Things
I prayed for in this life:
to trust another human
and to be loved by one
for loving another is easy
all it takes is control
but to be loved, ah . . .
that is letting go
When a prayer or two
have been answered
two things enter my mind:
What now;
am I going to die
because I'm finally happy
Yet, I'm still alive
living moment to moment
doing the next one or two things
on my daily calendar
I have learned
if we believe long enough
think upon the truth
of one or two things repeatedly
they will find us, undoubtedly
Everything we desire
is a homing beacon
an innate tracking device
of charted experience
All that we seek
seeks us in return
but the world would
have us doubt our self
Keep two things in mind:
be general in thought;
don't box the Universe in
What is meant by that
are two more things:
imagine it daily;
don't imagine how it will come to pass
Believe it will
in the Universe's time and way
hold on to that belief for life
it took 47 years
for mine to manifest
I wouldn't change a thing
We are planets orbiting dreams
our gravity fields attracting
what we think and feel
It's only a matter of time
before the vision in your heart
is where you'll lay your head
Two things I promise after that:
you won't die of happiness
nor lack for more blessings
than you ever dared
Then fear holds no power
even unto the mystery of Death;
for what then should you regret
when you've been granted
the three things you asked
Yes; I said three, but that third
is between the Universe and me
. . .
