Withdraw

retreat...withdraw
find a safe place
there's more and more
stuff left to face

it comes in waves
perpetually
like the high tides
in a cosmic sea

breathe in...within
it's always secure
inside where we hide
all that is pure

all that is sacred
all the divine
sweet revelations
every time

we need to recede
to sit on the shore
to be peacefully
someone much more

than all of our thoughts
the feelings we feel
within...breathe in
enjoy the surreal
